Eating in Sicily

 Pasta ca muddica or pasta with breadcrumbs. a simple and delicious fettuccine pasta with just a hint of tomato sauce and topped with muddica atturrata or toasted breadcrumbs was served by one of my Sicilian aunts to a very crowded able. I's hard to note that for expediency she used paper plates. No one seemed to care because the pasta wast very delicious and the company delightful.

 Appqrently she won the table centerpiece at a matinee event at the Waldorf Astoria in Manhattan. Shot with a Nikon F and the sublim5 105 F 2.f Nikkor lens on Kodachrome II.. Early seventies.

 As long as you have a can of good tuna fish you can create a great meal. Here we have Italian spaghetti with broccoli, canned tuna and pomodorini. A superb dish.
