Synopsis Suzan Colon comes from a large and colorful Italian family that has often had to economize during tough times--from poverty in the Old Country to the Great Depression in this one to Colon's own struggles with being laid off and having to go back to basics. Combining her mother's lively memories with long-forgotten notes and recipes left behind by her grandmother, Colon also draws on her own love of food and cooking to produce this heartfelt memoir and recipe book. It's all about Italian comfort food, and the comfort comes not only from the savory food but from each recipe's rich heritage.
