My mother and grandmother would take hours making sauce. I think I have heard of pot cheese. I never heard them call it gravy. Then there is au jous, which is the juice of the flank steak, or whatever. It was awful hard for me to assert my vegetarian desires in a family full of meatheads, I mean meatballs and sausage. My grandmother's pizza: she had a restaurant with old pizza ovens. Friday night was busy for pizza. I used to love to be in the kitchen and eat handfulls of sweet shredded mozzarella cheese. The ovens are still on her property and they are at least 50 years old. What kind of music did Italians listen to? I remember one uncle who listened to some kind of music with accordian in it. Any memories on this?
