They were poor people but we did not realize it as kids because there was always great food on the table. My grandma insisted that we all meet for dinner on Sunday's after church. My granddad come from a family of 11 children. They were wonderful but strict with us grandkids. I miss them still today but cherish the memories.


What a wonderful story. You are very lucky to have those memories.

This Nonni became a Snoozona today after making pasta and meatballs for her 1 and 4 year old grandbaby girls. We play name that pasta with the 4 year old, and she can identify about 10 different types of pastas. I tried to trick her today by telling her I was making ziti, and she quickly corrected me when she saw me pouring rigatoni into the boiling water :)
