My own big old nonna born in this country in 1865, but that doesn't make me any less Sicilian!(Americans are all from someplace else, even the "Indians"came across the Bering Strait-just some may not be as proud of their heritage to keep it &contribute to our great American culture. Had to learn to bake when we moved out of the NE(in the 60's)&could nolonger count on those great bakeries! Artichokes? Try the meat department m'am! (Ricotta? Had to make your own!! Olive oil? Bring some gallons from up North when you went to visit!
