A Table for Everyone: Recipes of Love, Faith and Italian Roots

In every Italian kitchen, there's more than food simmering on the stove-there's love, memory, and faith passed down like a sacred recipe. A Table for Everyone (Italics), is a heartfelt collection of over 55 family recipes, woven with the story of Assunda "Susie" Giancola Thomas, a beloved mother, grandmother and friend whose cooking brought comfort to everyone who walked through the door.

From Sunday dinners to Christmas smelts, from handwritten cookie recipes to comforting soups and casseroles, each dish is a doorway into a life filled with generosity, resilience, and joy. This cookbook honors not only the flavors of Southern Italy but the enduring spirit of an Italian-American community in Youngstown, Ohio.

With reflections, prayers, and legacy photos, this book invites you to cook, remember, and pull up a chair-because at Susie's table, there was always room for one more.
