Peggy DiMaio came up with the idea of a Calitri Cookbook. I think it's a
great idea. For myself, I never grew up 'calitrani'. My Fastiggi
grandfather married a nice Irish girl and then my Fastiggi mother married a
nice Jewish boy....so....I'm the family member getting back to our roots.
These stories and anecdotes that go along with the food would be great to go
along with the recipes....what do you think? Send your recipes to the List
and Peggy will collect them.
