Mia Famiglia
Mia Famiglia
Poof – flour on the counter
Splat – mash potatoes
Poof – more flour
Crack – one egg
there's one food my family can't ignore
Gnocchi.
mostly because we're all together when we have it,
and when we're all together we're
ALL
bickering
like
typical italians .
we dig in
with our hands
getting that mushy dough
everywhere.
everywhere
just like the smell of
Papa's sauce –
true italian basil
Red Sauce –
absolutely intoxicating.
plop, plop, plop
scoop
slap – butter
sniff
mmmmmm – my favorite food
with my lovably annoying family
