Volume 176: For Mama on Mothers Day Spinning My Dad’s Vinyl
-
- Music History
So, mom...your last mother's day was in 2015 just three weeks before you died.
In those nine years since, you have been dearly missed, thought of often and always toasted at family get-togethers.
I still use your recipes and even some of your kitchen tools to cook our meals. And your granddaughter still helps me make cavatelli and cassatelles. My kitchen always smells good. Almost like yours…sometimes.
Your memory is just as much a part of this record collection as dad’s. Because you were always telling me what you wanted to hear on the living room record player.
Mom…This episode is for you.
So get ready to hear a collection of Italian memories often played and definitely whistled around my house growing up with Volume 176: For Mama on Mothers Day.
