Life is short. Enjoying some special foods here and there will not kill anyone unless they are going to gorge every day.....
I do not recall one obese family member on my dad's side and they all lived extremely long lives......maybe it was the home made Italian vino. My great uncle Vito was the one who made the red wine and brought it by the gallon jugs to my grandmother's home.
I discovered that back in the Prohibition days, families were allowed so much table wine..........never knew that before.
I will bet they all self medicated with wine........and were indeed a jolly bunch.
Not like some of the uptight folks of today ........
You are also invited......once I get there and "recover" from the move and settling in.....

Thank you for the invite - I'll be there with bells on.
There is nothing better than homemade wine. Some of my friends in NY still make it. Christmas Eve would not be the same without it. (SIGH).
Good times - good friends - good eats.
