Food

"My family is primarily Italian, and we grew up with Grandma and Dad cooking in the house a lot. My father was also involved in the parish men's club, and there was a small community of other Italians who did the crab feast and other events. A lot of people didn't cook for a living. My dad didn't cook for a living, but when it came to cooking, they all decided they were going to do this for about a week straight leading up to an event. A lot of guys who had no business being in the kitchen did this twice or three times a year to raise money for the church. It was more or less that group of people, the gathering, and everything centered around food."
