KatyJanuary 15, 2008 at 7:54 AM. yes! the grittiness of the ricotta gets to me -- I can't eat it. one thing i do, which is not a south beach diet thing but just something i like to eat, is mix vanilla extract, splenda and cottage cheese -- it's similar to the south beach diet ricotta recipe but in my mind, a lot better. maybe i'll add jello next time!
Yeah, like his name is a piece of cake. It is pronounced San Louis (not Louie) O-bis-po. Here is the history, the town was named by Father Junipero Serra who established the Mission here in 1772. It was named after St. Louis, the Bishop of Toulouse.
Hypocorisms of first names are commonly based on truncation, only keeping the first (Max) or last (Hans) syllable(s), sometimes in contracted form as these examples show. Often the ending-i is added to these truncated nameforms.The name might also undergo a sound shift (Sepp).speranto forms nicknames by suffixing-njo (for females) and -Äjo (for males) to the first letter(s) of the basic name or word. (This is the only situation in Esperanto in which a word root is shortened or otherwise changed in word-building.).
