There were two things that Signora V. liked which might be considered a trifle unusual:
Two eggs (scrambled) served with Miracle Whip. Sometimes with fried bologna on the side.
A small mug filled with Sacramento tomato juice and crumbled saltine crackers. When everything was softened up enough, she'd eat it with a spoon. She called this "Tomato Surprise".
Signor V.
"For me, there's only my wife..."
"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
