Hello CZcams, it's been a while!
I’m back in Italy for a few months to spend some much needed time with my family and so here’s some Italian content 🤌🏻
I went to visit my Nonna Rosa in Calabria (Southern Italy) for a couple of weeks in September and I thought it would be fun to film a very realistic “what I eat in a week” video while i was there 😋
I used my phone to film this whole thing so sorry if the quality isn’t the best :')
anyways, hope you enjoy and thanks to my nonna for cooking the best food 🥰
byee 💗
[about me]
Hi my name is Rosie, I'm 26 and my life is a bit confusing so i'm writing this lol.
To make it easy:
- I was born in Northern Italy, in the region of Veneto
- My whole family still lives there (mom, dad and my little sister Marty)
- I moved to Toronto, Canada, at 19 all alone to ✨find myself✨ (spoiler: it didn't work, i got more lost if anything)
So, I live half my life in Italy and half my life in Canada.
Also, my mom is from Moldova (country in Eastern Europe) and my dad is from Calabria (region in Southern Italy) and both my grandmas still live there. So you’ll occasionally see me going there as well.
I hope this clears things up a bit.. or maybe makes them more confusing lol.
I don’t know, i tried 😄

Hi guys thank you so much for all the love on this video 💗 I got a few comments in regards to the plastic plates/cups we used so I thought I'd write a general comment to explain 😊 When my family and I get together to visit my grandma (which only happens a few weeks in the summer) she uses plastic plates for cleaning up quicker and because she only has a few ceramic plates since she lives alone. My nonna is amazing but unfortunately a bit uneducated on the current environmental crisis so when I try bringing up the plastic usage I get dismissed quickly. I totally agree that there is no excuse to use so much plastic in current times and I am very aware of my environmental impact when I live by myself. But when I'm visiting other people's homes (like my nonna's) I tend to adapt to their way of doing things because I don't feel like I have a say since it's not my home. However I know I can do better than that, so next time I will visit my nonna I will buy her more ceramic plates and I'll take care of the washing ☺️
Thank you for sharing xx It doesn't take away the amazingness of your nonna. Getting together with our family is one of the most precious moments.
Ti basterebbe comprare i piatti compostabili, sono simili a quelli di plastica ma ecologici. Così tua nonna non deve mettersi a lavare mille piatti, povera donna. E l'ambiente ringrazia🤗
Ciao Rosi! Grazie per condividere questo bellissimo video, mi sono ricordata di quando ho vissuto in Italia! Volevo dire che sono passata per la stesa situazione con i piatti di plastica, quando ho abitato con i miei ex suoceri! Mia suocera trovava i piatti di plastica molto più facile da polire, soprattutto quando c’eravamo in tanti, e c’era pure la questione della mancanza dei piatti di ceramica. Dopo tantissime conversazione, l’abbiamo convinta di non utilizzarli più 🌸 ma alla fine, alcune volte le persone si dimenticano che la nostra generazione ha molta più informazione sul questi argomenti ambientali, e che tocca spiegare di forma gentile e essere compreensivo con le differenze di educazione che le altre generazioni hanno avuto. Un saluto dal Brasile!
You know what, sweetie, you are so blessed to have your nonna still on this earth, and I would do whatever she wanted and spend as much time soaking her up as you can. Thanks for this video I LOVED it so much.
But they don't sell plastic tableware in Italy anymore, they've been banned. Are you sure they're plastic?
this is such an more accurate depiction of life and culture in italy than all these travel bloggers try to show it...just simple, delicious, loving, and sunshine
Absolutely
And apparently 365days in a week tomato.
it isn' t! above all talking about soundtrack...
we don't spend our spare time eating and eating and eating....or cooking again and again and again.
@@susannafranceschetti9506 I didn’t mean just the food. I meant spending time with family, going on day trips, summer festivals, family lunches, relaxing in the summer, etc… these quaint things often are different from wht Americans usually think Italy is like because of films :)
we say dolce far niente
I just love how realistic and spontaneous this vlog is! I think people worry so much about aesthetics when making these kinds of videos that they end up... kind of bland and boring, honestly. But yours is a breath of fresh air, it looks like what could've been a week in my life, eating with my family... even though I'm not even Italian hahaha. I really really love this!
Same!! Its so difficult to find youtubers that film in a relaxed and personal style, everything in general American youtube is always so hyper and "HEEY GUYYZZ" and this was so simple and just ahh, felt like I was a part of the family the whole video :)
Yes!!!! You're so right 😊
Exactly
Omg this isn't a movie or drama? I'm shocked
yeah but the sound effects are fucking killing me. WHY ARE THEY SO LOUD??
I keep re-watching these, "what I eat in a week at my nonnas" because I love them so much. Their pastries looks so delicious. To be honest, EVERTHING looked delicious.
SAME THIS IS MY 3rd time
this is like my comfort video now lol
Omg me too !! This maybe my 4th time watching this one . There’s something very calming about her these particular videos
I love that you’re not afraid to show what you eat realistically. Having a few portions of your Nonas food and having snacks and treats. It’s so much more real and honest than other bloggers and it makes me feel so happy to see you enjoy things. :))
Why would she be scared to show what she eat lol
A lot of women had ED in teen years and are still afraid of food......including me
How many American female vloggers can you name are showing close ups of them feeding their faces? This is soooo refreshing...enjoying great food!!
This exactly looks like a trip to my grandma in Turkey. I just love how similar the vibes are. Even in the beginning of the video, the laundries hanging in the back. Felt so familiar...🥺🥺
Same here in Portugal with my grandma
@@ChillTheChilli same in Morocco 🥺🥺
same in Algeria 'la kabylie' precisely TT
Is so beautiful be Mediterranean isn't it?
mediterrane countries are very similar in lifestyle
this was so comforting to watch :)
It's like a Studio Ghibli movie
@@zeytelaloi omg right? I’m such a big fan of studio ghibli movies 🥲💕
Thanks for commenting here.. that is how I got this in recommendation
@@zeytelaloi Which one?
This reminded me of summers with my grandmother. Oh, how I miss her.
I'm not Italian, I'm from Argentina but this reminds me so much of my abuelita. She loved to cook, even when the rest of the family tried to help her she always tried to do everything herself because she just loved to cook for her family. Nothing like grandma's cooking. I miss her. You're so lucky to have her 💜
You make me miss mine 😞❤
I had a white American grandma with basic English/Scottish roots and though the food was very different, she always loved cooking for us and made sure we were well fed and ate together. This video even reminded me of her!
Rather than the food itself, it's the sense of family this video emanates that makes people remember their grandmas. This video captures the beauty of life, even in its mundane moments such as walking to the store or sharing a gelato with family.
If her Nona is breaking the pasta in Italy nobody is gonna stop me to do the same in Mexico 😂
😂❤
That dish Was like a "soup" in Italy. If you have to do like an Aglio e Olio or a carbonara ecc... you can t brake spaghetti
@alessioomerlini2952 of course you can
She did for the seafood spaghetti dish
Just break the damn spaghetti 😅😂
It's crazy how we Mediterraneans have a certain way of cooking, watching your grandma cooking feels like watching mine, same way of peeling or cutting vegetables, serving plates... Insane 😂
Watching you from Spain, love the video!
Isn't that true???.they all stand the same way..cut the same way...
Yeah but products totally different and better quality. Too much chemical stuff this days especially in Spain 😏😥
Italy here
@@seniorarubia I don't think so, you just have to know where to buy
True, I am from Greece and this video brought back memories from when I visited my grandmother. Her cooking, cutting the veggies over the pan instead of using a cutting surface, preparing the table, even the foods are similar.
As an Asian, I always wondered what other cultures eat at home. Thank you for recording this. Your grandmother's cooking looks absolutely delicious!
agree!
As an Asian you wondered what "other" cultures eat... Are you saying Asian is one single culture?
Why is it that everywhere on CZcams someone has to point out which culture/country/ethnicity they are part of even though nobody asked and nobody cares? Asians make up most human population in our world, it doesn't make you special. Your uniqueness and personality is what makes you special, not your ethnicity.
@@arunima29 He/she prb mean cultures other than his/her own.Don't always assume the worst.
Same here....asian cooking/food outside and in home can be very different. My mom cooks all the time, and food at home is so much more simple and still taste delicious.
I love how she doesn't overreact after tasting that food , I'm sure it's tasty asf cuz her nonna cooked it with love💕
The simplicity of the way your nonna cooks reminds me so much of my mother. And it's funny because there's a myth that states that no italian would ever break their pasta when cooking, but my mom and her nonna always broke their pasta, just as your nonna did in some of her pastas 😆
it’s so cool to see how cultures in countries thousands of miles away have essentially the same foundations. I’m from Pakistan and have never been to Italy but this felt so nostalgic! spending summers with all my family at my Nani’s house was pretty similar and your aunt and Nonna cooking reminded me of home. Something so wholesome about the simplicity of spending summers surrounded by your family doing basic every day things that just feel so much more special when you’re all together. Loved this vid!
I live in Italy, and every 5 years i go to visit my grandmother and some cuosins in Bangladesh :)
I’m originally from Russia and this video reminded me of the time at my own grandmother’s house
@@carolinadick6902 Im from South Africa and really everything felt familiar an similar to the time when i grew up . Very nice. I just could not believe how he nonna handled those prickly pears .!!!
I have literally spent a good time of my life at my nani’s place. My nani passed away last month. I still have my uncle, aunty, their kids and their kids too. My nani house is fun but nobody can take my nanis place. Love from India
@@juveriakhatri9233 nani’s are the most special people in our lives truly :(
This was so peaceful to watch. We as a generation are so focused on the aesthetic that we forget to enjoy the beauty in the non curated/crafted flow of our life. Having a beautiful family that cooks for you, going to the beach, getting to pick desserts are all beautiful little moments we often gloss over trying to take an Instagrammable picture. Peace isnt even the right word, this video just felt very unfiltered and comforting. Our cultures are very apart as I’m from Nepal, Asia but it was great to see us share some food recipes. Thankyou for giving me a peak into your culture and life
When I was little and on Sunday my dad got the pastries, I could never chose mine before my grandpa! 🤣
💟
@ace i loved your comment 🥹
Some people are do not always have that type of family experience unfortunately.
Hi there I love your comment and I agree too! 🥹 I am also from Nepal 😊
I love Rosie's videos. There's no showing off blatantly or subtly. She is just existing. I love this and so do many others, and many channels have tried to replicate her style of late
“nonna waiting outside cuz she was ashamed of me filming”😂❤️ 19:27
It's like watching the average Greek household and routine when grandma is visiting or we are visiting her. And seeing how many nationalities also relate to it, from the Netherlands all the way to Mexico, I must say, we are all not so different after all.
You'd be surprised to know that South Africans do this too hahaha
North africans do it too
Exactly
Klosa
I loved watching my great grandmother cook
She never prepared a vegetable without cream sauce. She lived to be 103! When she cooked chicken she had to catch it first!
It’s crazy how there’s a misconception that Italians believe snapping spaghetti like that is *blasphemy* but here we see your Grandma do it for every spaghetti dish, love it!
The Calabria's peoples often uses snapped spaghetti for soup preparation or kids meal.
i feel like non-italians cooks think that's blasphemy more than Italians themselves...
@@heyletsdoitcrazy
it depends on where you find, on the habits of the place ... in Rome don't say that you make carbonara with cream or bacon/pancetta ... it's blasphemy
m.czcams.com/video/d0lkRS9CuRw/video.html
@@heyletsdoitcrazy no there’s literally an Italian brother duo on CZcams who react to people breaking spaghetti and act like it’s the biggest sin of all time. It’s Italians who act like this.
@@nicolabergamasco nobody gives a fak
I'm from India! I got to know about more dishes that Italians eat and their way of life. It was so refreshing to watch. Nonna is sweet ❤️
I have a nonna too, she literally makes Italian food and pasta ravioli/tortellini all the time. As an Italian, this is the most accurate vlog! Ciao!
She’s Italian too
Your lovely Italian family is so realistic, and beautiful... Nobody changing for the cameras. Your Nonna cutting fruit right at the table. It's just beautiful.
Truly
Exactly ❤️
Is it considered rude to cut fruit at the table in some places? I grew up with my mother preparing melon at the table like this...
@@Sentientmatter8 why would it even be considered rude ? It’s nothing like that .. it’s stupid to even think of it like that .
@@Sentientmatter8 i think they meant that some people try to make it aesthetically pleasing by cutting it in plates and stuff while in the vlog its simple and realistic 👍🏻
I don't know why but this was so wholesome. In a world with so much suffering it's nice to know some people have a good life with a good home who can enjoy relative innocence.
Ikr 😩💗
Yes this video makes me happy
Yup. I’m American with a wholesome family but there’s always those people who effing love to wreck your day because of their own insecurities.
My grandma passed away 2 years ago (just hit the 2nd anniversary of her passing). The first time I watched this video shortly after it came out, I ended up having to sit in a supply closet at work because I was crying too hard to be publicly presentable.
It’s funny how this reminds me a lot of my Viet grandma. She was a bit gruff (nicest to me as the fave grandkid) but her love language was food. She hardly asked me how I was doing but she always asked me if I was hungry and if there was anything in particular I wanted to eat. And she always had my favorite dishes ready.
Thank you for sharing your week with your nonna. It’s been a comfort to watch. I look forward to seeing the next week of meals at your nonna’s!
Every now and then when I feel the lowest and life seems so blue, I come back and rewatch this and before I know it, it all goes away🥺 thanks for sharing this❤️
Im north African and im actually supprised how similar the cuisine and let alone the whole vibes are !! like I knew there were similarities but i just feel like i just sat and watched my grandma cook like back home.
Morocco ??
We are all the same in our soul :3
@@HAJAR-zz7dd aaah no algeria lol
Mediterranean bros lol.
I'm from Morocco and i felt the same
I always wonder how mediterranean people manage to consume so much oil, yet their diet seems so healthy!
Also love how Italians are not ashamed to mix pasta and potatoes - great combo
My Oma (Grandma) is German, so her food is very different, yet the vibe of seeing your nonna mixing, preparing and stiring is so much alike! Grandmas are so precious!
Not every type of oil is unhealthy. Olive oil for example is very good for you and nutritious.
@Ömür Geçiyor it depends where you live, I live in Portugal and it's not expensive, I very seldom buy or use any other kind of oil, there is always a bottle of olive oil on the counter next to the stove. It's definitely a cultural norm for the southern Europe countries, who also happen to produce a lot of olive oil.
The Mediterranean culture is the opposite of the US. People walk around a lot, especially after dinner, their food supply isn't majority GMO, and they don't eat enough for 2-3 people at every meal. They also don't live in their gas guzzling SUVs.
sugar makes you fat. not oil
People also don't normally realize olive oil spoils. So fresh oil is a must.
I really like how your family buys pastries to share at the end of a meal-I’d like to try that with my family. Also how you can infuse different flavors in tomato sauce. So informative!
I am African American & Lakota Sioux . I've always had an adoration for Italy and the beautiful, rich culture 🥺 I even study Italian language, my family thought it strange. Come to find out I have Italian ancestry on my paternal grandmother's side. This warms me inside 🤍 So nice that culture can be loved and appreciated across the nations. Love this video! You can truly feel the warmth.
Interesting
Culture =/= Genetics , it's very silly to say otherwise
Hooray for multicultural appreciation 😊🌍🇮🇹👏🏿👏🏾👏🏽
Y’all sitting down to eat as a family lunch and dinner was so nice to see! And Nonna cooking everything fresh everyday 🙌🏾
This video just make me want to be a matriarch in the family and feed my family a homecook meals like that. Damn, I want to have my own family now.
It's so interesting seeing day to day traditional recipes from other cultures. In Italy it seems like pasta is such a staple dish at home just like in my country, Ecuador, but with a different carb, we literally cannot go a day without eating rice for almost every meal. Really nice video! ♥️
Wow that’s so interesting! I just googled "Ecuadorian food" and everything looks so good 😍Thank you so much for your comment 💗 p.s. you’re so pretty girl!!
@@rosiemaio Omg, you're prettier, thank you 💕
Amo encontrarme un comentario de Ecuador jaja ❤️ y sí, siempre todo con arroz.
Btw such an amazing and lovely video ❤️😍
@@gabrielaborrero oh! So nice to find out I’m not the only Ecuadorian here. What you said it’s so true and such an easy add to our tasty food. Who doesn’t love rice in Ecuador
@@lupinlupin4715 un ecuatoriano/a al fin 😭 my family can't spend a day without something with rice specially in the aguado or with some caldo de pollo, not a day that we miss rice
My grandma lived in Kyrgyzstan, and cooked other dishes but somehow it sooo reminded by your video! Love to your grandma from Kyrgyzstan
I’ve never been able to travel and watching this video made my heart happy. This is absolutely a piece of heaven. Your grandmother made me think of my great-grandmother and how particular she is in her kitchen, every morsel is full of love. Thank you so much for sharing. ♥️
as a brazilian person, I was amazed when I noticed how similar your nonna's dishes are to my grandma's sunday lunches! even their kitchens look alike! this shouldn't come as a surprise of course bc of immigration, but it is nice to realise the italian influences on my culture :) i loved this video
Another ítalo brazilian here. 💜
I was thinking the same and I am from Uruguay! jeje
Same over here, but mostly regarding the pace they live life. Sunday, it’s about to go to the markets, all fresh organic veggies/dairy products and meat. Also, the fresh herbs at home that you’d pick on the spot! Then they’d open a wine bottle while eating antipasto followed by the never ending meal! hahaha The fruit tradition was also a big thing, the way her nonna was cutting the melon I’ve witnessed so many times back home! This video was quite nostalgic!
mds sim?? e quando eu vi o frango de padaria com batata frita e um salgado que parecia coxinha eu pensei logo que tava num domingo no brasil
@@viccsantanaa parece mesmo o Brasil, né? muito interessante
Don’t worry about the aesthetics….it’s a privilege to see in your families homes cooking and be genuine and authentic 👏🏽
I’m Filipino and the way you guys just vibe and eat together I think is a commonality among all cultures out there. This feels like something we also do in the Philippines. Even some of the dishes are similar, just the seasoning and the way it’s served I guess is what makes them different. Our choice of carbs is rice. Haha.
This reminds me so much of spending summers in Greece with my family. Our cuisines are similar in some ways, and there is a lot of Italian influence on cuisine in northwest Greece where my mom's family is from. I feel like I also eat way more snack and junk type foods when I'm in Greece than when I am in the US 😂 Also love the after dinner walk (we call that the "volta") and ice cream culture we share between the countries.
This reminds me of my grandma. My whole family is Dutch, so she’d make Dutch food all the time for my brother and I. Chicken noodle soup, stew and potatoes on cold winter days, Dutch pancakes with fruit and ice cream on summer days. It wasn’t anything like a professional chef, but it tasted so good just because Oma made it. My grandpa (Opa) and I loved to eat together! We’d always get Chinese take-out on his birthday. Oma would always buy a specific kind of soda and have it in stock for when I came over, no one else drank or even liked the soda, she had cans upon cans in the pantry just for me. She had strawberry flavored tea and my Oma, mom and I would always drink a cup together (3 generations of tea lovers). Gosh, I truly miss her a lot. Please enjoy your time with family very much, I would give anything to have my Oma and Opa back again.
And whenever my brother and I slept over, she’d have cookies, hot chocolate and a blanket ready. We’d talk for hours because we didn’t want to go to sleep yet. Some of my fondest memories are at their old house💜
Aww 😭😭❤️❤️
Your very blessed.
Omgg ik voel precies hetzelfde :')
Love this. I’m so glad you had such a beautiful relationship with your family and grandparents. 💜
❤❤
Nonas bread in the wine was a mood for sure
I have a new excuse now. ”Italians do this” and I’m here for it
@@georgiosglaros7992 and it's true :D it's mostly an old people thing but many do it
I love dipping bread in wine. It’s an Italian thing. Try it you’ll like it. But it has to be good Italian or French bread.
my grandpa used to do that a lot, specially when the bread was hard (I'm spanish)
i do this as a french 😂
Absolutely wonderful video. There are thousands of travel videos about Italy and they all are so tourist oriented with all of the bells and whistles of the travel industry, but your video Rosie touched my heart ♥️ you showed us the simple everyday life of an Italian family. I loved everything about this video: the kitchen where the entire family gathers around, the foods that your Nona cooked, the picnic outing, the trip to Sicily. So simple, no fake social media photos or captions. Thank you so much. This video is a real treasure.
There is something wonderfully nostalgic about your videos. My family is going through a transitional period - cousins getting married, having babies, etc. It makes me feel a bit sad but also hopeful.
My grandparents are long gone now, so we don't have a central "home" anymore like we did as kids. But your videos remind me of that feeling when I would visit my family in India and spend summers with my grandparents, cousins, and relatives. Your family life is similar to how I remember my childhood. Thank you for your authenticity and for reminding me how much I love and miss my extended family 🫂
There is something nostalgic in seeing a grandmother cook, even if it is different food than what you had growing up. My grandma is still alive at 84. I have never once been to a meal where she cooked pasta or used tomato sauce 🤣😂. A typical traditional meal my grandma would make could be fried rabbit, fried squirrel, fried quail or fried fish. She would fry that in lard in a cast iron skillet that it probably at least 100 years old. For sides we may have homemade mashed potatoes and gravy, creamed carrots or creamed asparagus. Hot rolls or bread of some kind with butter. Finally usually a variety of fresh garden vegetables (usually tomatoes, green onions and definitely radishes).
French? Greek?
@@hanillegiolo3386 no american 😅😂
Tell me you're southern American without telling me you're southern American 🤣🤣🤣
@@CheledeLeon actually believe it or not my grandma is from Illinois. German ancestry. Just country food.
That's awesome, I'm from the South and that sounded like good food to me lol. Country cooking is best 👌
I love how your grandma pour coffee into so many cups. It looks warm and hearty to me that a family share coffee tgt ❤☕
Back to this video.. my favorite of all of your videos.😂 I wonder how many times I’ve watched it these last couple years…
same ❤
I'm Spanish and It's lovely how similar we are, even in how houses are inside. Seeing your nonna reminds me so much of my grandma that now I'm like super soft inside. Loved the video!
La cultura mediterránea reina sobre el resto
Same for us portuguese , it feels like ur watching ur own home and meals . At least at my grandparents house where i grew up its almost exactly like this , the drama and all lmao and everyone helping around , the take out and the pastries occasionally, all its missing is the bottles of wine and always a salad and soup on the table hahahahha
Same here, my grandmother would always make a big pot of creole gumbo when she would visit us from Louisiana. I wish I had recorded her preparing it so I could use it for my children.
Soy Argentina y nosotros sacamos lo mejor de ambos mundos. Nuestra gastronomía diaria esta inundada de platos tanto españoles como italianos. Y tenemos la misma cultura familiar de comer en familia, preparar la comida juntos, de juntarnos los domingos...Podremos ser americanos, pero los inmigrantes Italianos y españoles dejaron una huella enorme acá (inclusive en el idioma XD)
yes, i am brazilian and i agree
Your nonna's food looks so appetizing and all traditional hand-made dishes can never be compared. Long live and bless your nonna.
Not gonna lie after watch her grandma's cooking, I am starting to think to just drop out of school. Then, get me a responsible and family oriented man, and start a big family🤣. Finally, I can feed my whole damn family, and later become a grandmother who will feed my grandchildren as well
I’m from Croatia and I can tell you that our typical day meals and Family gatherings are exactly the same… tomato, peppers, garlic, fritters, pastry and oh yea… afternoon coffee after a nap 😂
I'm sorry for rewatch this again and again for many times. This is a literal my type of healing🥺❣
The smile on your Nonna's face when she serves up the meals is absolutely priceless! Your Nonna is beautiful, cherish her always! Thank you for sharing this with us! ❤️🥺
Nonna = grandma
Nona = ninth (f) .
Doble letters are a thing in italian.
@@lucaschiantodipepe2015 Thank you. I changed it!
I'm Italian, born and raised in Rome, but for the past year I've been living abroad and it's so hard to tell people HOW MUCH of a love language food is for us lol
Probably.. And i feel sorry for you.. But, believe me, IT s such a pann în The ass to concentrate always onto foid as confort. Try theater, literature, cinema, sport, esoterism, cleaning anything else JUST GOES FINE!!!
I’m serbian, but I feel the exact same way! This reminds me so much of my grandma when we went to the market and our Sunday lunches
@@dianamihalache3360 ???? Food isn't our "only comfort" lol. It's our LOVE LANGUAGE. Homecooked meals are a display of affection, they're comforting but not something we just drown our sorrows into
oh whomst, I m Glad you did that! 👍👍
Glad you said that
I'm from Finland, and I loved this video! Our cuisine is generally very simple, and healthiness is usually prioritised, with taste often being slightly less of a concern. Having lived in France, though, the "belle vie" or "dolce vita" that you find in so many other European countries (and elsewhere, too) really resonates with me. I think food can bring so much happiness, warmth and pleasure into life.
Every few months I come back to this video to feel warm and fuzzy again
As a korean, i was so interested that most foods are made with tomato sauce. i'd like to travel and eat them because it seems like such a peaceful and calming place🥰
I'm Italian and I'm from the same region as her, i think that you should come to Italy when all these covid19 thing will be over so you can try the delicious meals we have. Btw I love the Korean culture and I would really like to come visit all the beautiful cities Korea has and try the food.❤
Yes, It is like garlic, ginger and soja sauce for some asian countries.
@@marialuceferrara9823 Thank y'all for pizza and Frank Sinatra!!!
@@laddrusso5243 😉😉💗
The Italian kitchen is all about flavor and simplicity. They use the best and most flavorful tomatoes and basil. Top it off with garlic, good Parmesan cheese and olive oil. I love Italy and I have really missed it even though we live only 40km from the Northern border. It will be the first thing we do once all the covid restrictions are gone.
This is so interesting for me to watch, there's a lot of things similar to what Mexican and Mexican Americans do in this. I love seeing the real Italian food rather than an Americanized point of view, it all looks delicious.
Ikr!! While watching this video, all I could think about was: "this looks exactly like my daily life with my family"
my parents are from sicily im american. my aunt married a mexican man. and my uncle married a costa rican woman. ( im from LA) anyways yes we get along really well!!! especially old school mexican people they remind me so much of my grandparents
I dont know a european country with americanized food. Europe is so diverse and every country with its own food tradition.
Everything looked super yummy!
Yes, I know what you mean. I 💘 authentic food from around the world. One day I'll have food from Japan, then the next day I may have food from Mexico. A couple of days later I may have food from Greece. And then the next day it's Korean food. I love authentic languages and food. I try to be a fly on the wall absorbing it all and enjoying every minute of it.
I love a really family sit down meal video, so warm and your nonna really knows how to feed a whole family.
These Nonna home videos became an addiction to me!! It's amazing how every detail is so relatable to my childhood at my grandma's house even tho we're in Tunisia but it's like we share the same culture
Rosie, I'm delighted. I teach Italian and I will make sure my students watch this video. It is such an amazing piece of historical record of what Italians eat on a regular basis at our times. Congratulations!
I feel so honoured, thank you so much 💗

Video is very nice.and lovely. But it is not real picture of what in all Italy all people eat on daily base. In my family, eg, we don't eat at all fried food.thanks Rosie for your video. Lol
@@federicaricci2838 well ofc "not all italians", but lots (in south Italy for example) eat fried food and all that delicious recipes in this video ✌😊 🇮🇹
Although I enjoyed the video, that's definitely NOT what most italians eat on a daily basis, at least not in the North. Such an overabundance of deep-fried food is more typical of the South. I believe the lack of leafy greens and fatty fish is also not that common.
I can’t believe I’ve just watched a person eat for a whole week😂😂 but this was so nice and relaxing To watch, your nonna probably enjoyed having you with her every day at the market and cooking for sure, you’ve made some great memories with your family by recording this video and probably stole some good recipes from your nonna’s too. I really believe in treasuring these moments because we live in the here and now, we don’t know about tomorrow, so make the most of it while you can with your family and loved ones. I hope you’ll continue to make this type of content, which is very realistic, natural and true to yourself, wish u all the best 🙏🏽😘😘😘
why are you so pretty tho 😭
@@anononoa8 aww thank you
Omg I just rewatched your videos over and over and giving me motivation to make italian dishes now! You're lucky to have a mom and nonna like them
That’s so nice your family always sits together for a meal prepared with love.
I love how Italians love food, love to eat. Food to Italians is like weather to the English: an undying obsession . I know which I prefer. Viva Italia, you’ve given so much to the world. Gracias.
You mean grazie? Gracias is Spanish
@@SabineLegrand oops. I’m in Mexico. Appreciation nonetheless .
@@SabineLegrand
Certo che era proprio necessario sottolineare ?!...apprezzare in silenzio no eh?!...al limite ringraziare....ma no,bisogna fare i professorini.
Being Mexican, i literally felt like i was in Mexico while watching this. There are sooo many similarities in all the aspects. I felt so warm & loved (hungry too) lol, while watching this.
Bello. 💚 Gracias. 🥰😘
🇮🇹🇲🇽❤️
I'm italian, I love Mexican food. I learned to make beef cheek Barbacoa and Carnitas for my friends. Mexican cooking is so full of flavours, rich and wholsesome... I truly love it.
I know right!!! I always thought that Italians families and Mexican families are so identical in the way they go about their life in like the family values and their cooking. Their always in the kitchen as a family
Bro stfu. Mexicans and Italians are not similar. The only reason you guys speak Spanish is because Spain attacked ur country and u took their language.
U Mexicans always trying to act italian
It soo cozy I love how her grandma cooks for the family I hope you guys will be like this forever
I'm nursing my new baby and pumping around the clock and was looking for something gentle and comforting to watch and stumbled on your channel, seeing your family just go about their days is so peaceful and lovely and all the food looks so delicious and gives me nostalgia for my grandparents. Thank you for sharing this ❤
I just love how this was so similar to my grandmother's cooking here in Portugal. Some dishes are similar, and also the way of making the food, the cutting, the grandma's clothes and gold necklaces, the little market, the hot summers and going to the beach...
My moms family is from Aveiro Portugal. We don’t eat as much pasta but we do love a lot of tomato base stews over white rice. And the grilled sausage 🥰
This video hits home
Mediterranean grannies
Righttt i was thinking the exact same thing its so similar to Portugal
i feel the same, i'm from Brazil and even her grandmother's kitchen looks like my grandma's kitchen hahaha
I love how everything was done as a family. The cooking, the shopping. All dishes looked amazing. I really like this video
Maybe consider writing a cookbook with Nonna’s recipes.
I’ll be the first to buy a copy ❤️
It's amazing how your Nonna never runs out of great, great, menu ideas. I love how she cooks well.❤
This comment section is such a wholesome place . People from different countries and culture sharing what they eat in a daily basis is amazing . I'm from Bangladesh . We do have occasionally most of these foods . But as a meal we mostly have rice or parata /tortilla . with meat ,fish and veggies . We also have tea /coffee as beverage .
She’s dead.
All of them are Dead.
So true❤️
I'm half Italian but my son is half Indian and I keep chapati flour right alongside my pastas.
@@topperhatschire lmao what you've named ur son?
The best food is always the food that’s not aesthetically pleasing but made from the heart! I’m Lebanese and I can definitely relate to this because it reminds me of all the meals my grandmother makes every Sunday for the family 🥰
I'm Lebanese too and her Nonna reminded me of my Teta! 😍
ahhhh what a lovely week in Italy. I felt I was right there with you and enjoying nonnas food. Thank you for taking us on your trip.
I have watched this so many times that I can now literally tellwhat she ate in the whole week 😂 because I can't get enough of this video. ❤
Italian and Greek families are so similar even the kitchen the table the chairs how the stuff on the table is arranged and generally the whole vibe is extremely similar it reminded of my own family so much
Agreed
Same in Spain. I was watching my own grandma cutting watermelon for dessert after lunch. So comforting 🥰
I think Greece and Italy are just names of territories, we as people, are One, italians, greeks, spanish, even turks egyptian and levantines, we are all Mediterranean brothers
I have the same thinking, but I’m Brazilian, we had a lot of Italian influence since the great Italian immigration to Brazil!
Magna Grecia was composed by Calabria with Sicily and Campania and Puglia. Latin culture derives from Greek basically.
It’s looks like your Nonna is putting all her heart into cooking for the family. So so sweet. Cooking is a lot of hard work, I think the plastic dishes is great to help her out! Hopefully one of you is writing down her recipes for your family to savor in future years. ❤️
Beautiful family and amazing food! I miss my grandma so much it's been only a year since she passed away. When I was a young boy she would cook amazing meals for everyone during Sundays. Everyone would visit her house to see each other and spend time with her and eat her delicious food. I wish the best for you and family and keep up the great work.
I might have watched this video over 10 times it's so soothing and calming everytime I watch it. It's become one of my comfort watches. Thanks Rosie :)
I am so socked, this video looks exactly like a vacation week at my grandma's house in Tunisia. Even the food is practically the same. We are so much similar than we think, it's amazing!
It's like my grandma's house in Brazil. Thank you for share this precious video. Love from Brazil.
Same in algeria hehe north africa and south Europe have such a similar culture and I love it
@@reynareyn2637 true this video is like a week at my grandma's in another universe
Exactly, their food and typical daily life routine similar to middle eastern countries!!!
It's just medditeranean culture. We're the medditeranean bros!
Is so cool to see what people eat around the world. In my house all lunches or dinner we have rice with other things. And in your family's is pasta. Everything your nonna made looked delicious and homey/comforting/warmth.
você é br né
In ours is tortillas!
I'm from Romania, but I live in the Netherlands and here mostly we have potatoes with some other vegetables. Of course I can't speak about other households. In Romania it's so much different, more spicey foods,I really enjoyed this video.
This is what i like about youtube .places and people are made so picture perfwct in movies and shows but watching these videos you realize how it really is .love watching how other people live and do in other places
for me it’s bread, we eat everything with bread expect a few dishes
I love these video’s. So nice to watch the Italian family life and the food your nonna cooks the traditional way 🥰 This really is good CZcams content about real life.
This is how our summers look in the Netherlands too. We have more and more summers that are hot and we enjoy swimming in the sea, eating at ‘oma’s’, devouring a lot of ice cream and going to little markets everywhere. And a lot of picknicks and bikerides.
I need those tiny popsicles in my life.....also I love how realistic this vlog is. The way the food is presented is so homely and authentic......also big hugs for Nonna
oh my, so many commons with Greece. the food, how grannies always cook for the family tables, the sea, fruits and sweets after meals, the whole vibe & lifestyle. It genuinely felt like 'home', i loved it!
I mean, you were Romans for the past oh I don't know 2,000 years of so lol.
Almost the same in my family. I am from Crimea. I cook almost same meals with tomatoes and pasta and fish but only difference is I add very little of oil. Really amazing video, so real. Reminded me time when mom was alive and cooked and we were sitting in kitchen waiting. And summer sea, exactly same markets and shops. If not language I would think it’s Crimea 😄
una razza una faccia
@@devineballer3009 Yeah,exactly that!!
Same with Spain!!
i love this it’s so wholesome and non-pretentious and normal ❤️
I loved watching this! as a Mexican this reminded me a lot of my grandma the way she cooks, and also inside the house, religious figures, I got impressed seeing that you guys also eat the cactus fruit and zucchini flowers!!!
I’m Jamaican but this give me a nostalgic feel. She reminds me so much of my grandma with the way she cooks
My granny too! 🇯🇲
I’m half Italian, half Jamaican. Very similar in a lot of ways, the two ☺️
I'm not even Italian ( but still mediterranean though) but I relate soooo much to this video, it became my comfort video, I can feel the warmth of summer and the smells coming out of my nana's kitchen, the salty smell of the mediterranean sea in the late afternoon, and walking to the beach holding ice-cream cones.. It brings the memory of every summer I lived..
You should write memoirs lol 💜
Thats cool where are you from?
That was such a beautiful video! i enjoyed watching all the great food and pastries your aunt made! Thanks for allowing me into your home to hear your family speaking Italian and seeing all the wonderful things you guys did!
I’m not Italian, but this sure makes me miss my Southern American granny. A grandma preparing food in her apron, just a different kind of food. Everything looked delicious!
Ppl should show this to those who like to over dramatise that their italian nonna will throw a fit if you break spaghetti. Especially some of the tik toks that are going around now.
All the food looks so comforting, simple and yummy.
No its not normal breaking spaghetti. In fact i dont understand why she does it
Spaghetti is only broken when put into soup
You break spaghetti If you make soup, but it's something that we rarely do. Or at least, I have never seen anybody break spaghetti in 42 years and I was born and raised in Italy 😅
We brake spaghetti for soups
Nah. Only for soups. You’re still on the hit list.
Nonna is an amazing lady, cooking every day for a home filled with family. How fortunate for everyone. Thanks for sharing.
i literally watch this video every day
i love watching your videos ! it reminds me of my family and I. although I am from Thailand, the way your family interacts (your aunt bringing home dresses, you guys going to the flea markets, eating dinner at the table together) reminds me of my family. thanks for bringing joy when i watch this ❤
I'm from North Africa, and it's incredible how much the culture of mediterranean countries is similar, the food, the way your grandma was making it, the dishes, everything reminded me of my grandma I really enjoyed your video
Right? My mother and her Italian friend always love each others food bc of the similarities. Culture wise as well.
same i’m half tunisian and half dutch & south african but i live in the netherlands
Is it only Mediterranean? Tbh, I see these foods quite frequently on my table here in Wales, UK.
@@organicfarm5524well I don't know about Wales, I know few things about this part of the world, but it can probably be similar to Mediterranean culture
@@organicfarm5524 like what?
The whole mood of this video made me feel like I was sitting at the table with them. How lucky your are to have this wonderful part of your life with your grandma (I dip bread in wine too)...It's so tricky, I found myself wanting you to critque the food, compare to American food but realized the true value is that real life if around the dinner table. Sharing food, daily events and you captured this feeling so beautifully the look on your face when your nona cooked something you liked said it all. This is so down to earth I'm subscribing. It is what it is and you laid it out for us beautifully. Blessings to you and your family and thanks for inviting us in.
If I can add a P.S. The conference about what kind of pasta to buy for supper was so fun. Pasta is so important everyone wanted to be involved. That love goes right into the pot.
well written. :)
@@albertstraumVLOG Thank you for your kind comment.
I'm watching this at 5:30am and now I am starving!
2:59 oh my god, I haven’t seen these popsicles for over 15 years! Me and my friend used to have those every time we hung out at her place, but then they were suddenly unavailable in my country. So nostalgic ❤
I love this. I’m a young mom with three kids in the US, and my life is so similar. I spend a lot of time in my little house just prepping ingredients and cooking meals. We sit around the table and eat and chat. It’s nothing like 99% of CZcams. Some days we swim some days we don’t. It’s just a quiet, dignified life. No designer clothes, no sportscars, no celebrities. I love it. Ciao!
❤️
As a sportcar owner in designer clothing... i can confirm what u have is priceless. Materialism brings a lot of negativ vibes whit it: "Jelousy, Cockiness, False Friends etc etc..
I am a man who owns a pinball machine and I live in Canada... blah blah blah let me tell you about meeee.
@@greasymuchacho 🤣🤣
I hate the videos where women just nibble a tiny fragment from the food they're eating and make out that's how they really eat. Also, when they have perfect make-up all day and for some reason it irritates me when they clasp a mug they're drinking from with both hands. I just find it to be some smug and fake.
I’m Egyptian and this video reminds me so much of our Mediterranean summers by the beach in the North Coast; simple and full of love, happiness, and fresh fruit and delicious home-cooked meals by my mum and aunts. Thank you Rosie for sharing this beautiful glimpse into your lovely family’s life ♥️
I'm eating a nice chicken dinner and this video also reminds me of this and that. I'm this, I'm that. Way to make this video about you and who you are. Guess what? Nobody cares you lived in Egypt.
I’m Egyptian too, That was the same how i felt .
@@greasymuchacho Guess what nobody cares about your opinion.
Omg this is giving me good vibes❤
love my mediterranean brothers and sisters 🇮🇹🇪🇬
Simple, proud, delicious food. Your grandmother is a treasure.
This was a heart warming video. Loved every second of it. Your nonna is a sweetheart. ❤ Wishing the best to you and your family. :)
