This explains many things I have been wondering about for years. Now, I know not only know who she is, but I know more about her. Much appreciated and I guess this now gives us the origins of the phrase "Cleanliness is next to Godliness" <strong><em>Haha so true! Thanks for coming by Torre!</em></strong> Thank you for this wonderful article with the story about La Bafana. This explains many things I have been wondering about for years.

I grew up with the story but was very sad that La Befana never came to my house! She will be visiting my nipotina though!! I always blame that Southern Italian gene for my wiping compulsion. I hate dirty counters!!!! <strong><em>Haha that's funny about the counters -- I'm like that too, especially where crumbs are involved. HATE crumbs!

Haha that’s funny about the counters — I’m like that too, especially where crumbs are involved. HATE crumbs! Happy 2011!

Now that I've read it, I strangely enough feel incredibly guilty for not caring more about cleaning. I didn’t know the story behind la Befana until I read this post of yours.

I really enjoyed reading about her.<br /><br />Also I've had a similar broth many many times. I think it's those Barbie shoes that make it so tasty. Thanks for sharing Befana with us.
