And the sauce heavenly!<br /><br />I went to college in an area where the steel mills and coal mines put the food on the table.( near Pittsburgh)<br /><br />Good, hard working , kind people. Many of my classmates father's worked there.<br /> After college I went back for many weddings held in church halls..the cooking done by the relatives. Very different from how we do it here in NY, but some of the best food I have ever had..made with love..<br />And the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to were small, usually in a converted home in a little Ohio town. Everything was fresh and homemade...Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323768335143979148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986801201760240722.post-6738951495225170472009-09-30T00:23:43.939-04:002009-09-30T00:23:43.939-04:00The ingredients look so tasty!

Anytime some plant would go on strike, he was the guy that would load up a truck with donated food and head to the union hall. We ate at lots of dives like you describe, and were treated like kings. Your story reminded me of those great meals, and an introduction to interesting foods...
