ONE CANNOLI HOPE

My Facebook friend Cheryl posted:

"What do you call a fake noodle?" IMPASTA

Of course I had to join in:

"Dear Cheryl, I wish I had a PENNE for every time I've heard that one! I can think of only a FUSILLI puns, but I am hoping for a dozen ORZO more! One CANNOLI hope!"

Cheryl had 22 in her thread but nobody else supplied a pun. I asked Patty and Gretchen for help!

Here are their contributions:
