“I had a very Italian house - the "plastic furniture you couldn't sit on" house. Did anybody have the museum house? For a kid it's traumatic. Towels you can never touch. China no one's ever gonna use. Everything is for a special occasion that never happens. My mother was waiting for the Pope to show up for dinner. Or Sinatra. Or Chachi.” UseShowsHappensKidsMotherHouseWaitingSpecialChinaDinnerOccasionsItalianMuseumsPlasticPopeFurnitureTowelsSpecial Occasion Author:Ray Romano

“Food is one of my favourite things. Though I certainly know lots of people who happen to be happily married who don't have food play the role in it that it plays in my life. And I don't know how they do it, and frankly I feel so bad for them because I just love food and one of my favourite things is asking, "What do we want for dinner? What do we feel like eating?" That wonderful negotiation that goes on several times a week about what "we" feel like.” PeopleKnowsWantFeelsPlayHappensRolesKnow HowWonderfulWeekGoes OnEatingMarriedAskingDinnerFavouriteNegotiationFood LoveHappily MarriedFavourite Things Author:Nora Ephron
