Anyone want anything from Italy, Mario will throw in whatever will fit in the gondola for you. I've already claimed the seats with a few hot Italian men so plan accordingly.

And if you are beach side for the summertime or out on a cruise and you hear 'That's Amore" floating in from the waves, hands off that's my order being delivered!

Pirate my stuff or my hot men at your own risk. :mad:

Can he stop by Marco Massaccesi's shop and pick up some bags for @carterazo and me? That way we won't have to wait for shipping. ;)

Stop me if you've heard this one. The part my car needs is on back order. Let's warm up the pipes again for Mario as he crosses the Atlantic again!

I’ll take a freshly made cannoli alongside an Italian leather bag being carried by a very sexy Italian man.

That is so wrong to now give me a craving for Italian ice. Southerners have no idea what that is around here. It's in the wind like pastina and escarole. :frown:

Your order has been received but this ain't Amazon so forget the Prime delivery other than the prime hunk soon to need a visa. :blush:

You know I have thought about this but I feel like it is a slap in the face to my great grandparents who left Italy and came here. Luck all of you. I could be entertaining Europe instead.

I watched something on either CBS Sunday Morning or 60 Minutes how there is a way for those that can trace their ancestry back to Italy to become Italian citizens. They spotlighted Americans whose Grandparents came to the US and they were able to become dual-citizens! It was pretty cool and apparently not that hard to do. I’m not sure what the requirements are but it would be nice to have another country to escape to if need be lol

I've looked it up. I think I am one generation too late since it was great grandparents and I think they also had to keep their Italian citizenship which I am not sure if you could do that going through Ellis Island.

I know someone (1st gen) doing this, and it is taking years. They were told they should have done it when they were 18 and it would have been quick, but back then, they would have had to give up American citizenship. :no:

I think the people who have done it more quickly ended up going to Italy and finding the records of their relatives in the towns they were from. They hired Italian lawyers so $$$ probably helped speed it up LOL
