family: any group of persons closely related by blood, as parents, children, uncles, aunts, and cousins: to marry into a socially prominent family. Italian: a native or inhabitant of Italy, or a person of Italian descent.
so it's salami time again, when everyone gets together at nonna's for some high class slaughtering, mincing, seasoning, gourmet pasta and love... it's when you arrive home from work with pigs lined up hanging from the verandah... a time where all seems completely wrong but love over rules everything... where the children get to play with eyes and run around haunting folk with blood... and the adults sing to old village tunes... a chance for the whole family to get together to argue, laugh and talk... where traditions are all we follow and being Italian truly comes out... this is what i call family...
