@@MrMikkyn leading a simple life is the key. In all of the places where there are many centenarians, they have a very simple lifestyle - they are close with the people around them and they are satisfied with what they have. We could all learn a lesson from them.
It's hard to watch this video and not be awestruck by how 'young' Rosina seems. Her mobility and acuity and very impressive. Imagine getting to 100+ and **still** enjoying a quality of life like this. What a rare and special gift.
Aris1956 A person can live carefully, eat only "healthy" foods and exercise daily but good genes are 98% of living a long time. Pick your ancestors carefully !!! lol
Not important how long but the quality of life when you get old , keep eating unhealthy and processed food with no exercise and at 50 you'd be older than Rosina at 101
Nonna Rosina reminds me of my Mamma Stella, who passed away in May, at 97 years of age. Oh how I wish I could make ravioli with Mamma one more time! Making them without her is not the same, but I’m teaching my niece, because that’s how culture lives on. My love to Rosina e tutta famiglia! ❤️🥰
That has to be the best video yet! What an amazing Pasta Granny Rosina is at 101 years young! Her skin, dexterity and energy put us younger folk to shame! She has a great sense of humour too and is so young at heart, as well as being physically agile. Amazing-I’m in awe! Long may she carry on cooking. Thank you so much for bringing her to us - she is so joyful and as sharp as the knife she sharpened herself! Wow!🤩
I am speechless😮i can't believe this bellissima nonna is 101 years old!!! Amazing. Simply amazing!!! My hat off to you and your cooking bellissima signora. Pasta grannies you made my day😍😍😍😍
I just can't take my eyes off of these lovely people - real italian cooking - real life, real pasta, real enjoyment... Thank you so much - there are no words to put that great gratitude of Pasta Grannies...
Jaw dropping. You would never guess that she is 101 years old. I hope you followed her around all day and took good notes - whatever Rosina does, do it. Her pasta is clearly blessed and magical. Another terrific episode! Thank you for chronicling these special ladies. Another gem!
Rosina is amazing, running up and down those stairs, gathering veg, chopping up guanciale, rolling out that panella like a pro. I want to live to 101, and do it as well as Rosina!
Grande Rosina!!! Thank you so much for these videos. I am an Italian expat and feeling a bit old at almost half her age! These videos are giving me hope. I need to return to live in Italy at least part of the year as after almost three decades abroad I have felt rather displaced. I now aspire to become a pasta granny myself 😇
Quanta dolcezza in questa donna, mi sarebbe piaciuto abbracciarla e comunque una maestria a stendere la pasta che farebbe invidia anche agli chef più blasonati. Grazie di ❤️ Pasta Grannies e grazie di ❤️ anche a nonna Rosina.
Such a sweet, cheery, charming, very lovable Nona. Every dish that Rosina cooks will be special..they have loads of love in each of them. See that special bond between her and her nephew Luccio. "I was there when he was born" That says it all. She has seen the beginnings of so many members of her family, and looks back with pride at all those generational moments. Nonas like her, will live forever in so many hearts. Bless you Pasta Grannies for introducing us to such unforgettable Nonas like Rosina..
@@pastagrannies Equally, I cannot thank you enough for the happiness that each episode brings to me. I exult in each delightful moment of good cheer provided so generously by Pasta Grannies. Thanks very much Vicky and God bless.
The tears of the old always bring "me" to tears as well. She has lived a life of sacrifice, holding on to care for a beloved daughter. So glad for her that her extended family show her such care and affection. They're all so lucky to have one another. The most terrible thing for me in getting older is not my own aches and pains or visits to doctors, but losing that older generation. I miss them every day, my nonni and parents and zii.
I have to agree about the emotions that are brought up while watching Rosina. They weren't expected. Seeing her gives so much hope to humanity. This woman needs to have a documentary made about her.
"Rosina has 90 years of experience of making pasta" Not a lot of people can boast that... I just can't believe that lady is 101 yrs old, she is amazingly youthful. Grazie Rosina! EDIT: That lady is amazing.
This is my favorite Pasta Grannies episode. Who wouldn't love how funny and snarky Rosina is. I wish I had some Italian in me and that she were my Auntie too (can't give up my actual Grannies).
Welcome back Vicky hope that you had a wonderful holiday. Rosina has left me speechless, really speechless, she has to bottle her secret! that was one of the most amazing videos, Rosina's smile would get you through any troubles at all. The dish was mouth watering, am very jealous not to be there, it took me back to my family and emotions. Thank you Vicky and team PG.
Hi Ramon, yes I had a great break, thank you. Rosina is very special - and she is keen to do another episode, so we'll be hurrying back to her at the end of September. 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
She's 101 - and has about a trillion times more energy than me. Wow, what an awesome, powerful woman. May she stay healthy and positive - and her beloved family, too.
Wonderful recipe! Rosina is so full it life and energy, and she takes such good care of her family. She seems warm and friendly, and her home atmosphere is comforting. You can see her love of her daughter shine through.
Wow, what a delicious dish. This lady is so inspiring. She does not even use a noodle machine and just improvises with the dough by not giving it any time to rest and it still works out perfectly. This dish is actually somehow similar to a carbonara variation from a chef I just watched recently. He was also using a broth instead of the more creamy version in the classic recipe.
hi Donna, it's a variety of factors: as you say, simple seasonal foods, they don't move far from where they were born, they are active all their lives, and they are very 'plugged in' to their families and community. Other factors can include faith and having 'a mission'. best wishes, Vicky
I've watched every episode, this being a great one in particular. With such a broad view I feel confident saying that if you make pasta often and share it with family and friends you will live a very long time and spend very little of it thinking about who you hate. The world needs millions of 'Pasta Grannies'. Bravo!
It's true - making pasta is a metaphor for sharing the love, though I think any food made with care from scratch will fit the bill just as nicely 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
What an incredible chapter in the series. I love the "zi" bit. It's a perfect description. And I keep on learning more and more new and interesting ways to fix Italian into my repetoire. Mille grazie.
What an amazing woman! Humble, stoic, and a heart of Gold! For me, this was a life changing video❤️ We all can learn so much from this wonderful Italian woman❤️💯🇮🇹
My aunt from Le Marche taught me how to make pasta. She's in her early eighties now, still active and beautiful like this lady, which makes me wonder if there's some kind of magic in that region. I hope she makes it to 101 too.
Absolutely Beautiful Granny! This dish is interesting with, the fried added to the boiled in the dish. Looks really delicious. Enjoyed this video. A very special granny, God Bless.
Just to appreciate more this beautiful video from my region le Marche : The translation when she was asked if she remember when she made it for the first time “ no , my mother had to have an operation so she went to Ripa Hospital “ should have been like this : Yes , my mother had to undergo to a surgery so she went to la Ripa ( local slang for a beautiful nearby hill town called Ripatransone ). At the time ( around 1930 ) the hospitals where not located in the coasts that where considered unhealthy but on higher sites as Ripatransone . The “no” she said in this case has the opposite meaning , is a connecting word we Italian say often without real meaning 😊
Thank you for your insights. I didn't know hospitals were located inland. Have I remembered correctly you live in Porto San Giorgio? 🙂🌺 best wishes, Vicky
@@pastagrannies Yes you’re right I live in Porto San Giorgio , few kilometers from our sweet Rosina , and I’d say that at the time she was 12 yo the nearest important hospital in the area was in Ripatransone , there are many reasons why the main hospitals where not on the coast : health : malaria , history : main cities of the area where all inland : Ascoli , Fermo , Macerata , Camerino , it all changed in the first decades after WWII with the demographic boom of the coastal cities , today the nearest public Hospital for Grottammare is in San Benedetto del Tronto and together their beaches are famous as “La riviera delle palme “ one of the main tourist places in the Adriatic coast. As for malaria it was a big concern for a millenium for all the coasts of Italy and was eradicated in the years 1945-1960 by using the now forbidden DDT . Keep up your beautiful project , viva le nonne e le signore come Rosina ❤️
Very special. Thank you for featuring this amazing pasta granny. By the way, last week on the radio program, Wait, Wait, Don't Tell me on public radio in the USA, Pasta Grannies was mentioned.

Healthy, mobile, full of energy, and *no* *glasses!* Oh, and still working! (Kitchen, Garden) I know what the magic is - good, healthy, home grown food.
There's no way that woman is over 100 years old. She's got more energy than me and I'm 38. Does she have a magic portrait in the attic?! Amazing
