Oh Pippin, did I ever tell you? That's not blood coursing through my veins...it's tomato sauce! LOL!
I'm from 100% Italian stock and it just so happens that it's my favorite food! You've made me hungry!
A very happy birthday to your Mom! I hope you all enjoy the celebration!
You'll just have to come on out to Maryland for the best in seafood and Italian food. There is a section of Baltimore called Little Italy and they have some of the finest Italian restuarants there.
