[Michele20516]

I loved growing up in my big, noisy, dramatic Italian family. It’s interesting to be American but still have cultural differences–like the concept of turkey on Thanksgiving is foreign to me (we have lasagna). The festivals such as the church bazaars we have every year where we watch local kids climb the greasy pole. The expressions we use, my grandmother’s sauce, the Catholic religion, the overly macho but hysterically funny men I grew up with, the genuine pride we feel when one of our ‘own’ is successful from Dean Martin to Madonna, my overprotective mom who calls me every single day to make sure I’m OK…I could go on. The only drawbacks are when people hear my Italian last name I always get jokes about the Mafia or my ‘temper’…and hair, um, maintenance. But I wouldn’t have it any other way.
