I knew this had to be an Italian wedding!!

I’m Scots-German and married into an Italian family, my brother too.

A few similar things happened before my wedding to my Italian — fighting, screaming, yelling, name-calling, threats, accusations going back generations!! All ages were involved from 90 on down!! — 10 minutes later they acted if nothing had happened and sat down and ate!!

I asked my husband about the fighting and he said “what fighting?”

We had a lot of the same drama in our family. I remember, as a kid, the near-fights and the crazy drunken arguments and the plates being thrown.

Italians.

Ever hear of Sicilian Alzheimer's? You forget everything except the grudges.

Interesting. My lovely has similar ancestory, plus she has some of the Blarney and a couple of her great-grandparents came over from Sweden. So I deal with her Irish temper and the Nordic warrior princess thing ;)
