Joan- I am thinking of you on this cold, windy day. I am so sorry to hear about your mom. I remember how you talked so lovingly about her. My mom also died on January 17th,2009. I imagine those Italian ladies are sharing their recipes and cooking a feast for everyone in heaven. Take care of yourself and your family.
