I am from...

Queens, NY baby. Since Cassie started this whole 'where are you from' blog? I decided I would jump on the band wagon and share my side. I was born and raised in Middle Village, Queens, NY and have been living in Flushing since '04, just 10 min away from my moms and pops.

Til this day, the only pizza that holds the highest standards for me is ROSA'S PIZZARIA. I still remember their phone number - 718-894-4707. I can guarantee if you call that number, an italian-accented man will answer yelling out "ROSA'S!" Every wednesday, I would get out early bc my school had a CCD program for public school kids. Not sure if you know what that is, but bc I went to Catholic school, all the public schools in our area would come in on Wednesday afternoon for religious programs. Oh how I loved Wednesdays! We would go to Rosa's every Wednesday and I kid you not I would get tomato sauce on my white button down catholic school uniform shirt. Bleach even wouldn't help that!
My mom is from North Dakota and my father is from Argentina. Imagine that combo. My parents are great peeps and they help their "baby girl" out all the time. Here's a pic of my pops, Julio Tula. Every September, you can find him roaming the US OPEN. Such a fun man!
