puta persa

derogatory term used to describe a woman who wears too much perfume, usually the cheap kind. It is also insulting because it implies that she needs to wear this much perfume due to her "enthusiastic" sex life and partners and it is also racist since it describes the woman as one of Persian origina. Literally translates to "Persian Whore", often heard in Hispanic countries.

when I was kid I thought it would be fun to put on lots of my grandma's perfume and wear her jewelry, when she saw me she said "You reek, just like a puta persa, did you marinate in that cologne?"

fake sleepy sex

when you just can't sleep and you can't find anything better to do than suck on your lover's penis, but doing so gently enough to provide an erection without waking him up. Inevitably he wakes up but he's having such a good time he'll pretend he's asleep. If you look up he's got one eye open but may or may not continue to snore and may even shift positions to make things more easy to configure.

"so have you seen a doctor about your insomnia?"

"no, he said I should continue to provide sleepy sex until I pass out."

ano de la cachetada

much like ano del caldo, (year of the stew) this term also describes something or someone who is outdated and really needs a serious make-over. Literally means "year of the slap." (Implying, no one knows or remembers when exactly was the year of the slap because it was so long ago.)

"Mom have you seen this movie before, I think it's pretty old..."

"MMM, that's from el ano de la cachetada...."

Nutritionist

usage (noun)
A title claimed by many have-been hollywood types, wannabe doctors, and your regular garden variety hollywood "fitness" guru. There is no legal definition therefore allowing any charlatan to use it. Normally used to imply that the person has some knowledge on the science of biochemical reactions which occur in energy expenditure and metabolism as an organism converts food into usable energy-but notice they never use R.D. after their name, as they would be prosecuted for impersonating real scientists.

"Are you a nutritionist?"
"No, I'm a Registered Dietitian"
"what does that mean?"
"I have a degree in biochem and clinical training in the field in addition I don't wear spandex on TV"

filo

the type of dough used to make baklava by us Arabs

Baklava has different ingredients depending on the region you're in. The Arab recipe added rose water, nuts, and cardamom to the filo along with the other ingredients. Cardamom is considered an aphrodisiac and was therefore traditionally served in harems.
