I cook a LOT--and a lot of gourmet too. Entertain fairly often.
I do cook Italian but not as much as what I grew up with. I expanded beyond that, after avoiding pasta in rebellion for years after leaving home. Make a great fettucine alfredo in various ways.
I will confess, though, when I started adding Italian again, my mother nearly dropped dead when she saw me use sauce from a jar. It's just that particular sauce tasted like our Nona's. Of course I doctored it with fresh garlic and basil too. I just didn't have the time back then to make a sauce all day or just didn't like too. Since I've spent plenty of time making other things. I prefer to try new things.
I do make meatballs though, because my daughter loves them as well as others. I don't just use ground beef, I also use ground pork.
