I love Gorgonzola anything, Babe. But do you remember that episode of "Friends" where Rachel made the trifle and Ross said "It tastes like feet!"?

My oldest was maybe 11 or 12 years old when that episode first aired. And shortly after, I got her to try Gorgonzola on a salad. She naturally came back with "It tastes like feet!"

And to this day, every time she sees me eat it she says the same thing (and she's 26 now and loves Gorgonzola ).

I got the feet connection for sure! I love salad with oil and vinegar and crumbled gorgonzola. My kids would never touch it for the exact reason.

Saw that episode a few weeks ago PB, hilarious. The only thanksgiving episode i liked better was the one with Brad Pitt. I'm paraphrasing here:

Pitt: Look at her Ross, with those Yams. My two worst enemies together; Rachel Green and complex carbohydrates .

You read my mind, Kid. They did a great job with Thanksgiving every year on that show. But the Brad Pitt episode took it to another level. The I hate Rachel Green Club!!

. Probably my favourite cameo, the way Rachel is so oblivious to his hatred is priceless . I also really liked Ben Stiller and Alec Baldwins cameos.

Sounds Great my daughter is bringing her Girlfriend home for the first time tonight so maybe we'll try that

Chicken Vindaloo Curry, Pilau Rice and Chapatti.

I felt there was too many onions, but it was a great sauce.

Paulie had a system for the garlic.

Tomorrow we eat saingwiches!

Saingwiches. Giggle.
Make mine heavy on the cabigol. (capicola)

Don't forget prozoot and moozadell! Lol!
Welcome, AG.

Ha ha nope. Thnx for the welcome.
I actual made up a video on being Italian American on my utube channel mentioning all this stuff n the paisans love it. Got like 50,000 hits lol.

Somebody needs to publish a book with all the slang definitions! Tonight we are ordering pizza and Italian Beefs from our fave pizzeria! Mangia!

Chinese take-out tonight. The whole nine yards. From shrimp toast to spare ribs to lo mein.

We took a vote and Chinese came in second! Enjoy, pizzaboy! Crab Rangoon, too?

What else... It's sunday macaroni....I'm going to make Linguine with Shrimp Scampi, a nice garden salad, and a fresh loaf of Bastone Italian bread...Sounds good to me!

Shrimp scampi over linguine on a Sunday? Managia things have changed in the Italian kitchen. It's always the MARINARA on Sunday or NOTHING ELSE. Come on NJ...

I usually do the Marinara, but it's always good to have a change of pace once in awhile, now do you capisci!

Io non capisco I don't understand. Nope. Like I said before it's MARINARA sauce or the whole nine yards with the braciole gotta have the pork then it becomes gravy not sauce.

Roast chicken, potatoes and gravy with corn on the cob.

Not to start up our timeless "sauce vs gravy" argument again but I agree with AG... once meat is added, sauce becomes gravy. Mangiamo!

Then you'll appreciate this exchange I recently had with Olivant in the Godfather section.

Start with my post, then watch Oli's reply, then my reply :

Y'all's funny, pb!

Roast chicken here too, Mark. With sauteed escarole and white beans. Tomato salad, too.

I have to agree with Olivant 100% on that, it's was sauce for me growing up...All of my grandparents came from Italy, whether they cooked meat in the sauce or not i never heard them refer to it as gravy....One time i asked my grandfather about the sauce vs gravy question and this is what he said to me "Anybody asks for gravy in my house for their macaroni, I'm giving them just what they asked for - gravy - brown gravy! You want tomato sauce, you better ask for it!"... Now i'm not debating on what other people should call it, just giving my point of view.

....

Pb whoa back it up a minute here, you see what i wrote it was my point of view, i wasn't saying that they were less or more Italian for calling it gravy. So i don't know why your jumping down my back when i was just telling my story on the situation?

I didn't know you and him had your differences, because if i did i would have left his name out of the conversation.
