    Hi everyone! I'm Tanza (it's a American English butchered version of Tana from Gaetana). My dad's family is from Calabria and my mom's dad is from Sicily. Italian food is so much a part of my life and who I am. I regularly bake my own ciabatta, can tomatoes, make ricotta and all that good stuff...so you can see how I gained weight in the first place and why it's so hard to lose it! We still have pasta once a week and usually have a glass of wine with dinner, but with other adjustments it's working - slowly, but working. It also helps that I'm vegan. I'm not strict about it, but since dairy actually makes me sick, it's easier to say no to the lasagna and gelato.

    Would love some friends who can sympthize with my struggles with Italian food - vegan or not. I cook non vegan for others so I'm always willing to share recipes too.
