growing up Italian in america

Me, my mom and grandparents. The Italian side of the family.

This is a photo of my family with my Italian grandparents on my moms side. I spent a lot of time at my grandparents house when I was a kid and spent a lot of time in the kitchen with my Italian grandma learning about cooking and mainly about how to pour love into the cooking. Cooking for her family is how my grandma Salerno shared love. She took great pride in her cooking and she was happiest when someone was enjoying the feast she prepared for those she loved! Yeah, that’s me on the right with the bowtie long ago and far away!

This is a photo of me when I was about 8 years old I think? That’s me on the right with the bowtie.
