Meal Three: Pasta Bar

This Friday, pity dinner was a custom affair.  Some good basic pastas... spaghetti, fusilli and cheese tortellini ... topped with a strong red sauce .  From there you could add  browned sausage, pinto beans, kalamata olives and cheese.  This was inspired by Bubble's Pasta Fagiole at The Grit.

An Italian meal would not be complete without some bread, so i also whipped up some seasoned olive oil for dipping.  Very tasty!

Dory was back to cooking again - which is good on many levels and she even brought some brownies for dessert.  C-pap was quite pleased.  A successful return to a missed tradition!

Pity Dinner Trivia

Today we are traveling "up'ta" camp! Squirt's family generously allows us to visit their beautiful home near Sugarloaf. We will eat, drink, take walks, read and play some Wii. Such fun. Since we will be eating some fast food en route, there will be little worthy of description. Instead some PD basics... We live in an old house. The kitchen cabinet for dinner plates is on an exterior wall. This cabinet gets pretty chilly in winter, so we warm the plates on the radiator. Regular rotating to get them all consistently toasty helps ensure our delicious food does not get cold from immediate contact with freezing stoneware.
