That being said, you, too, Angelina, tell a good story and I'm certain that you've inherited that longevity and sense of humor from your uncle as well. What makes this story personal for me, too, is that my Syrian grandfather, married to my Mississippi grandmother used to tease me as the only dark kid in the family and call me Angelina. I looked exactly like the Italian side of MY family! The word "bacigalupi" was also used in jest in our family! Weird. It must hearken back to the days when Italians and Irish were one-upping each other on supremacy.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313726816776097840noreply@blogger.com
