The fourth is just around the
corner… memories
McCambridge Park in Burbank,
when I was little, all day picnics, baseball games, bocce ball, nightfall and
magical fireworks
Going to Balboa Island with
family A LOT OF THEM… aunts, uncles, cousins and the queen grama.
A married woman with a child,
but I felt like I was going to summer camp.
I couldn’t wait to spend the week with family. Meals together, the beach
together and cards all night.
Spending the day at big Corona
swimming all day, getting tan, building drip sand castles with Nino and Gianna
then going home to a wonderful dinner my gram would have prepared, pasta with a
rich lamb sauce, papparul… a vinegar-y fried bell pepper and melanzane.
Peaches and figs bursting with
their sweet nectar. Cakes soaked in lemony, sugary, and butter goodness.
We would pile into my uncle’s
pick-up and head for the fireworks this was pure heaven.
So my dear Pergolian’s my wish
for you this fourth is one filled with wonder and deliciousness and maybe makes
a memory
All for you my lovelies
