10 Reasons to Cook Italian Food Instead of Chinese Food Tonight

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

First of all, let me just say this. I love both Chinese food and Italian food.  Don’t get all excited and start thinking I am bashing on any particular culture. I am not; in fact I am attempting to take a man’s view on cooking Italian.
