“No, no, no. You pronounced it wrong.” I exclaimed while squeezing lemon on this delicious dish. “It’s pronounced as PA-EH-YA.” “Really?! I thought it was PA-EL-YA!” He replied with so much amazement! “Well, you’ve been living a lie. Don’t get me started with the rice.” I said while handing him a spoon.

There was a study more than a decade ago conducted by Dr. Stephen Rennard, of the University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha. In this study, he investigated why his wife’s chicken soup recipe, which was handed down through generations, has healing properties.

Elvis: ‘Little girl, go fix me a sandwich, peanut butter and jelly sandwich.’ Now, you know, back when I fixed a sandwich for him, we mixed up the peanut butter and banana together.

But when I was dating him [1957-1962], he liked just a plain old-fashioned mashed banana [sandwich].” – Anita Wood
