Re: tradition
Where did you live in NJ? I'm not Italian but I remember my Uncle
talking about his dad making wine. Since my Uncle was the youngest (and
smallest) it was his job to crawl into the empty wine casks to scrub
them out. He said he got high just breathing the air in there! I still
remember visiting his mom's house as a little girl -- best pasta I ever
tasted. (They were from New Brunswick.)

Well, this was when I was a kid back in NJ. We all met at grandmas. She
was
in charge of the cooking. The sphagetti sauce was already simmering,
ummmm
I
could still smell it. She was up earrrrrly. My mother & 2 sisters
helped
to
make home made pasta & ravioli. She directed the whole thing. Grandpa,
my
pop * older sons sat around drinking home brewed "dago red". Powerful
stuff.
Yes, I did drink some on the sly. I got "sick". This was done for all
the
major holidays. It was gr888. Oh, I forgot, meatballs too!!!!
