“What does one think of when reading the words Italian American?” I asked a friend.
Was she going to say tomato sauce (gravy) or delicious food? How about fictional characters, Michael Corleone or Tony Soprano? Does the phrase “fuhgeddaboudit” suddenly pop into your head? Or maybe the “Che vuoi?” (pinched fingers) hand gesture? All are the kind of answers I have heard before.
