Lol, funny you should say that FOH. Because I were thinking about a good Sunday sauce w/homemade meatballs and sausage for today. But my wife picked up some beautiful sweet Italian sausage for today because she wanted to make sausage, peppers and onions and potatoes. So thats the program for this afternoon. And of course we got the family coming over to enjoy this big "pranzo" and to visit...Happy Sunday everyone!

In the meantime, enjoy the Franzese biography we just posted up on our website, and keep a lookout for a sensational YouTube Sonny Franzese video later today!

Are you kidding me paisano? Of course you're invited. A top quality red will do. Maybe a nice Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva. Lol.

You? FOH, you're ALWAYS invited! lol.

And yes, mia moglia picked up six pounds of top quality "sweet fennel" sausage from a friend's salumeria. I gotta say he's a master sausage maker. She also went to the Italian bakery near us and grabbed 3 loaves of fresh, braided semolina bread hot out of the oven.

Add the medley of red-green-yellow-orange sweet bell peppers, some white onions, roasted patata, and a insalata misto, and we're in good shape for today! lol

Buona salute to you and Hoodlum, and all our fellow posters. Hope you all enjoy the day. (as you can probably tell from this post, I've already had a few glasses of vino) lol.

These were the notorious men, both inducted soldiers and crew associates alike, who served directly under Sonny for decades.

John Gotti idolized this man more than any other street guy. All that Dapper Don bullshit came from Sonny

Unfortunately, such high-profile styles is what finally sunk both of them. Better to stay in the shadows like a Carlo Gambino, than to strut around like an Al Capone.
