Friends,
Just a quick note as we dash off to visit family for Christmas. One of my favorite food writers, Domenica Marchetti, has written a lovely article about the Feast of the Seven Fishes, an Italian-American tradition, in the exciting new online magazine American Food Roots.
Well, guess who’s featured in said article? You just have to click here to find out.
Merry Christmas to all!
Cheers,
Frank

Catching up on all the posts I didn’t read while we were away. Happy New Year and congrats on the mention.
I wanted to wish you a happy new years!!! I’m going to an Italian party with lentils… right up your alley.
The school was Barnard and I just didn’t like it. The most important thing was leaving Chicago and going to NYC. The Village was perfect for me and I had an amazing time there… learned a few things too.
Happy New Year, Deana!
Frank,
Mille grazie ~ thank you for talking with me about your Christmas Eve traditions, and for linking to American Food Roots. Quite a discussion has been taking place in the comments section about whether the Seven Fishes tradition is Italian or Italian-American. One thing about us Italians ~ we are an opinionated bunch!
Buon Natale e felice Anno Nuovo. Looking forward to meeting in person in 2013!
And thanks so much, Domenica, for the mention on your great new site. Have a great holiday and look forward to meeting in the new year!
Congrats for the feature and Merry Christmas!
Thanks and Merry Xmas to you, too!
Congratulations and a very Merry Christmas to you Frank
Thanks! Same to you!
Frank-congrats on this well deserved mention. Buon Natale.
Thanks so much, Linda. Buon Natale anche a te!
Congratulations and Buon Natale!
Buon Natale anche a te!
The interplay between Italian and Italo-American cuisine is fascinating. If I had all the time in the world, it would be fascinating to study the origins and evolution of Italian-American traditions and food such as the Feast of the Seven Fishes. Stefano would be ecstatic if I prepared baccalà for la vigilia! Perhaps Christnas 2013… Buon Natale, Frank!
It would be an interesting study indeed. Buon Natale anche a te!
