HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU’RE ITALIAN?

Italian-flag

You know you’re Italian when . . . You can bench press 325 pounds, shave twice a day and still cry when your mother yells at you.

You carry your lunch in a produce bag because you can’t fit two cappicola sandwiches, 4 oranges, 2 bananas and pizzelles into a regular lunch bag.

Your mechanic, plumber, electrician, accountant, travel agent and lawyer are all your cousins.

You are on a first name basis with at least 8 banquet hall owners

You only get one good shave from a disposable razor.

If someone in your family grows beyond 5′ 9′, it is presumed his Mother had an affair.

You netted more than $50,000 on your first communion.

And you REALLY know you’re Italian when . . . .

Your grandfather had a fig tree.
