I am from kitchen,
from flour to mozzarella.
I am from the sauce spread all over the dough.
(red, fresh, homemade sauce)
I am from a huge family
from cooking together to laughing nonstop
I am from dreaming of growing up
as soon as possible,
and then wishing I could go back,
to start all over again.
I am from mistakes I’ve made
from “oops!” and “oh no!”
I am from a few best friends
who I love dearly
that will help me grow
I am from a big Italian family
from wine and homemade pasta
from a grandfather from Sicily
to the USA
creating a family based on amore
On my wall are pictures from my travels
from Sicily to Barcelona
from Greece to Rome
all of these travels created a part of me
from culture to beliefs
to family and friends
places, people and experiences have shaped who I am.
