Cooking: Growing up a Little Italian Boy

I started by watching my Mom and Grandmother cook when I was eight or nine. On the kitchen counter I sat and watched them make tomato sauce, pasta, soups, veal, pork and so on. I remember finding it interesting and fun. A little bit of this and that. I started cooking when I was 18 years old. Since the age of 20, I've traveled annually to the USA and abroad and have always been intrigued by the recipes discovered.
