Inspired by the 'Favorite St Olaf Story' thread ;) What was your favorite story told by Sophia?? She had so many it's hard for me to choose just one but this one is priceless!!

"In Sicily we didn't go to doctors, we went to the widow Caravelli. Whatever you had, she had a cure for it. She was most famous for a green ear salve she made. One day she gave some to Salvador the village idiot, he mistunderstood the directions and put it on his linguine instead of his ear. But the stuff tasted great! At first it didn't sell so well, 'linguine with ear salve' just didn't sound very appetizing on a menu. But once they changed the name to 'pesto sauce' it moved like hotcakes."

I love that one! I also like the ones where she talks about how she met her husband Sal and they are all different! I like the one where she says she was at the St. Valentine's Day Massacre. There was one that she told where she said she met Charles DeGaulle but then later said it was Charles the Mole. LOL.:D The one where she met Mamma Celeste, Pablo Picasso, Golda Meir, or the one she told to Rose when they were selling sandwiches and she stole money from her. There are so many, I can't pick just one, they were all priceless. :lol:

Theres many that are hilarious, I can think of these off my head:

"Dorothy, that young peasant girl was me, and that painter was....Pablo Picaso."
"I spent one lousy night with Mussellini, and I do mean lousy"

Remember the story she tells Dorothy about the president of Italy hosting a party where he invited all the heads of state, and that was the night his wife hit her sexual peak. So while the president is in the bedroom with his pants aorund his ankles the hungry guests are killing mice for a bite of cheese.

Dorothy: So what you're saying is, like the first lady of Italy, I'm a bad hostess?

Sophia: That's my secondary point. The main point is, you're screwing around in the bedroom while there's a party going on outside!!
