Well, I wish my mother's cooking would make me laugh, but it does not. I'm often the life of the party when it comes to my mother's cooking but it's a bittersweet conversation. I'm certain you and most Celts have an idea of how to cook. She was from a farm in Ireland where refrigeration was unknown, prepared foods were something you did yourself. She was born around 1904. A big day at our house was walking out to get pizza. Anything was better than home-made Irish food, except for the soda bread. Speaking of which, get a load of this. I was in Cork around 1978. My uncle told me of a new restaurant in town that served a "new" dish called "Pizza"! It was wonder bread topped with Ragu. I felt right at home. No, It really was. Wonder bread kinda crust, definitely Ragu Sauce. You cannot make that kind of story up. It was around that time they put a McDonald's in Dublin for the first time. I do not recall gaining much weight on that trip.
