Tim Gunn (Project Runway, his catch fraze) I'm trying to make you proud! At work I couldn't get a jpeg to fit just right after some serious words, it decided to go where I wanted it. Well at least it was close to where I wanted it. So then on the way home the boys ask what is for dinner. First thing that pops into my head is spaghetti. I'll just take some meat out of the freezer and we'll be done.
Well that would have been nice if 1 I had spaghetti noodles and 2 cans of sauce. Don't faint Chef E, I so am not make it from scratch girl! So well I had to "Make it Work". I found some fettuccine noodles and one can of sauce. I then located some spices and tomato sauce and let's see what we can make. It actually didn't turn out too bad, hey it's better then plan B "Hamburger Helper".
Well the talk with the host people seemed to help out a little bit, he has been nicer. That was until bedtime, I got the boys in bed. He asked to use the Internet, which is he wants to call his parents. Sure go right ahead, well when I came into the kitchen he wasn't talking to his parents just surfing the net. Sorry little man your 10 and it's after 8:30pm, no Internet unless your a thirty something witty mom that people are waiting to hear from. Yup I rock, just a little self back patting on that back! Back to my story this no Internet room brought back the teenager version who immediately stomped off to his room and shut the door! Well good night to you too!
It's another great day in the neighborhood! More to come!
What I found in the cupboards!
Brown up some beef.
Throw it all into a pan, and as Rick told me it's Pasta NOT Spaghetti!
lol alot of times I make spagetti sauce from scratch but let me tell you alot more times it doesn't happen because of two little sprites called madeline and natalie!
ReplyDeleteHey, one thing I do not do is make my own pasta, lol...that looks good and do not tell, but last night I had a can of mini raviolis! one of my childhood passions I keep around, but if my doctor found out :)
ReplyDeleteI like that, you are 'Project Runway', so now you have a new nick name like me, 'E' you are 'PR' :)
BTW 'PR' I like the new page look, and please do not think I am a party animal...I only had two drinks and two jello shots, or I cannot cook, lol
ReplyDeleteI am making up for being a good girl growing up, lol
I love the new page layout! Too cute! I love that canned sauce. It is cheap and so good. Have you ever used the Four Cheese kind? It is the only flavor I get. E will like this. Something really reasonable, quick, easy, and delicious is WalMart brand frozen cheese ravioli. Boil as directed, warm up sauce, then mix after ravioli is done and drained. You can add extra cheese on top and bake until melted. Also good to add beef to the sauce then pour over the ravioli. Yummy!
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy!! I love making sauce or making things up as I go. I am new here love your blog. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteActually Debra, I have eaten that and it is good when the hubby is gone, shhhhhh...tonight I made pasta my way and his way...but I put the two sauces on my pasta together, yummy..have not eaten meat for two weeks, I was dieing over here, and saw this!
