Growing up Italian in New Jersey my family always celebrated the "Feast of the Seven Fishes on Christmas Eve. Personally, I like that meal so much better than Thanksgiving.
Fish mongers all over New Jersey are raking it in today as Italian American families prepare for the long awaited “Feast of the 7 Fishes."
I’ve always looked forward to it, but for different reasons than the food.
Today it’s all about the food, but back in the day it was more about the imminent arrival of Santa Claus – and one particular year I’ll never forget...
