The Blizzard of 2010 kept me indoors today. Not that we had a blizzard at our house. Maybe 6″ of snow. Maybe.
But it was enough to keep me from wanting to go out and deal with all the morons who like to drive like it’s mid-July. We could have gone shopping and we could have come up with a pasta dish with what we had in the house, but we decided to take a Pasta Monday Break.
It was more fun watching old movies and doing nothing.
Victor did his Italian magic in the kitchen with Chicken Cutlets with homemade sauce and fontina cheese and green beans with homemade sun-dried tomato pesto.
Everything but the cheese came out of the freezer.
He was originally going to cook gnocchi as well, but decided if we ate less pasta for dinner we could have more cookies for dessert.
I like his way of thinking!
It’s been a fun couple of days. We were never snowed in, didn’t lose power, and had lots of goodies to eat. The perfect way to deal with Mother Nature.
Alas, all good things must come to an end. It’s back to the real world tomorrow.
Oh well.
