My late beloved mother taught conviviality to us. Holidays were made special not because we had a lot of money but because of traditions. Each holiday was presented with special foods. Easter was Pizza Rustica, ravioli, and ham; Thanksgiving was Italian Wedding Soup, Lasagne, Turkey & all the trimmings; Christmas was Pasta and Pork Roast or Turkey. There always was antipasti to start, lots of desserts and 'FAMILY'. She made every holiday special and we all looked forward to being together, eating good food, and playing games. We miss her very much, but she lives on in our hearts and in the traditions we observe.
Congratulations on the new subscription I am super excited!
I love the idea and I didn't know it had a name! I enjoy cooking and especially cooking with my daughter ( who now teaches cooking at high school) and also teaching my granddaughters (10 & 6) I love preparing and cooking food for my husband and friends and family. They all know my favourite cuisine is Italian, I am an Aussie and I am sure somewhere I have Italian heritage. I have a question for you Giulia, can I substitute the Guinea fowl with a organic free range chicken or do I need duck? I am not sure if I can get a guinea fowl where I live.

What a pleasant read! Your newsletter lifts up my holiday spirit even more!
With my role in the family evolving (before I was only a daughter, now also a mother, a wife, a daughter-in-law) I feel the responsibility of bringing the Conviviality to the family falls on me. And it is such a joy for me to do it. I like to plan the menù, bring it to live and serve to the family. Usually our holiday meal includes both Chinese and Italian dishes. I feel so satisfied and proud every time seeing my parents enjoying the Italian dishes, while my in-laws having the Chinese ones!
