Ramen noodles (beef flavor) and a can of Fresca. And for dessert---some Junior Mints. They're very refreshingwink

When my mom was alive, for christmas day she's put together a big antipasto, shrimp cocktail and then we would start with the lasagna, with meatballs, sausage, beef shortribs, etc. a big tossed salad (her lasagna was the best). We would have stuffed artichokes, broccoli rabe, etc. and then dessert.


Now my fiance and I go to his cousin's house and she makes lasagna (its good but its not like my mom's was...)


I am lucky I learned how to make my mom's gravy....yummy!

I learned how to make my mom's gravy too--my dad was Italian--mom wasn't--she learned from my Sicilian grandmother.
Christmas Eve we ate a variety of fish---calamari marinara was my favorite--we called it "devil fish." Sometimes we had crabs--baked in the oven with tomato sauce and oregano---my all time favorite food.
Christmas Day was some form of macaroni---rigatoni or spaghetti--meat balls, sausage, beef. And a roast beef. And stuffed artichokes----which were my favorite----my mom would cook about a dozen and I'd eat at least eight of them.

Every year and only once a year, my grandma makes lasagna. Best lasagna I've ever eaten and we have it Christmas Eve every year.

Finally, someone who calls it what it is - macaroni. Ziti, penne, spaghetti, macaroni - I never once heard anything we ate referred to as "pasta" - that's all you ever hear now.


Nobody in my family (or in our neighborhood) ever called sauce "gravy" - it must be a regional thing.

The Italians in my family all lived in East Harlem--that's where I was born---mainly Sicilians and Calabrese---a few from Naples. It was always "gravy" and always "macaroni" (though we made pasta fazool and pasta lindeek--I know that's spelled wrong--pasta and lentils is what it was).
