Shannon is lucky enough to have 1 great grandma, my grandma on my dad's side, Grandma K. who will soon be turning 96!! Every so often we call up grandma to make a dinner date. Unless we request a different menu, the meal is always pasta and homemade sausage purchased from Jimmy who lived in "the old neighborhood". It's delicious and everyone who has it says "this is the best sausage I've ever had, where did you get it?"
Great Grandma loves when we visit and enjoys preparing dinner. It is so nostalgic for me as we've had pasta dinners ever since I can remember. My baby book (an Italian Dr. of course) even wrote that at 6 mos. I could have pastina (small pasta pieces). I'm looking forward to Shannon enjoying this tradition as well. Because of that, I don't often enjoy Italian food at restaurants (except for a few) too often.
Grandma hadn't seen Shannon in a while and was so delighted that Shannon would sit with her and smile and didn't cry. We love you grandma!
