I love food, too, Signor V. I wish I had more opportunity to cook. However, I am heating up some leftover Chinese food, so that will have to do.
TIS, I am definitely NOT a recipe person, more of a handful of this and dash of that kind of cook. My mother has few recipes, so I learned to cook that way. I remember when my brother was getting married, and his wife wanted my mother's recipe for meatballs and gravy. Since my mother had no idea how much of anything she used, my sister-in-law watched her and wrote everything down.
OK, here's a question - do you use breadcrumbs or soft bread in your meatballs? Also, I use an egg, but know people who use milk. Anyone else??
