Buon Natale! I read this while eating a bowl of marinated octopus that I made yesterday! Tomorrow my big Sicilian family with gather for our annual festa (we now call it the “Boopie Bash” from the Sicilian pronunciation of ‘pulpi’) We’ll have shrimp, calamari, pulpi, scallops and so much else…… Thank you for this lovely remembrance! Auguri a tutti.
