Another year, another holiday for giving thanks. This week, we gather our thoughts, make our plans, prepare our family favorites and come together in celebration.
We celebrate this country and a time when the Native Population welcomed the New Settlers. It was a peaceful time to celebrate a full year of living in harmony. May we remember, no matter when our ancestors came to this country, Thanksgiving is a time for peace and gratitude. So whatever negativity is in your way, try your best to find peaceful solutions in order to practice gratitude.
Blessings on this Truly American Holiday!
We are 2nd generation Italo Americans from the Puglia Region. Our story is like many Italo Americans brought together via tradition, laughter, family and food. Since we could walk, we were in our grandparents' gardens reaching for the prized "seed" tomato. The "tasty tomato" is our life force; metaphor for love, food, tradition, memories, comfort, the market, summer canning, harvest, celebration, and much more. Share our family traditions as we build upon the legacy of our Italian Ancestry.
Food Is...
Family, Tradition, Memories, Flavors, Gatherings, Laughter, Life, Vitality, Comfort...Love.
