This is Nonna Natalina. Born in 1935. She just turned 90.
She lived through war, hunger, rebuilding, and a slower Italy that no longer exists.
She now does cooking videos on social media.
Here she is making ravioli.

Tortellini of the world! Unite!
The Union of Tortellini, after seizing back the means of production and redistributing the capitalist surplus, are here to wish you revolutionary holidays. Especially to your fascist uncle (or every fascist).
Merry Marxmas everyone!

Turns out the cat under the clothes rack is not in fact ours but a totally random third black cat. We manage to locate our other black cat hiding upstairs under bed, obviously also confused by intrusion of new animal that looks exactly the same as her and her sister. So we have one cat too many, and £75 worth of pasta that we never ordered, but Penelope did. I'm sorry, Penelope. I'm sorry traumatised black cat, you were very docile for a creature that had just been abducted.
(3/3)
Meanwhile, I'm trying to explain to food delivery guy that neither of his orders were our orders and he's convincing us to take one because he has to leave.
So, I go back inside with someone else's dinner and one of our jet-black cats is acting incredibly weird, slightly hissy, a second jet black cat is hiding under the clothes rack (where they often like to hang out). Both of our cats have distinctive meows, so we're confused when after a few minutes we hear an unfamiliar squeaky noise. (2/3)

"pasta resistance"?
Italian Pasta Is Poised to Disappear From American Grocery Shelves.
Trump administration is set to impose duties of 107% on Italian pasta imports, among most punitive of tariffs it has levied

"an outbreak of fettucine"
There's an outbreak of deadly fettucine
I don't know what to do
It's pasta time to get this under control
It's evil, through and through
The noodles have taken over
And have been killing people left and right
Tomato sauce has joined it
And the mess is quite a fright
Watch out for the Alfredo
It will kill you til your dead
Sneak up on you without warning
And kill you in your bed
The deadly fettucine oubreak
must be stopped at all cost
The consequences will be extremely dire
Or everything will be lost
So remember toss that fettucine
With a little broccoli and pesto sauce and wine
Keep it from growing stronger
And then the world will be fine
