Fantastic essay! My family married into some of these wonderful Italians, and it all rings exactly true.

These tables are the best, right?!

I love this essay, and your writing! Having spent a lot of time with my Italian-American friends and their families in the Chicago area, I had the great privilege of experiencing “the table”. You took me right back to those delicious and raucous events - the best! Looking forward to more of your writing 👏
