I’m busy working away like the proverbial busy bee…. all the while my small tin of second (maybe it’s third) day spaghetti is warming in the toaster oven. Yummmm! Second day spaghetti is always better than first day. At least it seems so to me, an Irish gal with a taste for Prego sauce… (I know… don’t scream at me.) It’s just that I have never been able to make a decent sauce… probably because I always forget to buy the right ingredients at the store in proper preparation. And I end up using ketchup as my base. Not a good idea! Trust me.
So, lunch is bubbling up and I am working. Just turned on the heat in the office. The chilly nights have gotten into the building at my workplace. Time to turn off the auto cool and turn on the auto warm.
Three days until summer finally flies away. This year it seems to have passed so quickly. Sigh. And the news just declared that halloween pumpkins are going to be scarce as hens teeth… too much rain ruined the harvest. Time to get out there, dig up the summer flowers and plant a few gourds for the squirrels to chew on.
Sigh again.
Desperate measures for desperate times…at least its not left over pizza.
I’m thinking something a little less italian for supper… perhaps some corned beef?
That ketchup comment was really scary. Tell me it’s not true!
Hey Mamma Mia! Have you ever known me to lie— or exaggerate?… actually, ketchup is a bit of an exaggeration… but I have tried to make sauce using SALSA… didn’t work either. Sigh. Maybe I need a hands on lesson from an expert?
I have a great recipe for you. It’s fool proof!
Dear Mamma… please send your ketchup free sauce recipe!!! 🙂
Girlfriend, I think we need an intervention if you can’t make decent spaghetti sauce and are attempting something with ketchup!!! It’s just WRONG and prego is a sodium nightmare!!!
Tell me you can be helped from yourself!!!
Yes, I agree. An intervention is definately needed. Bob and our 4 yr old granddaughter will put straight ketchup on their pasta. I can’t imagine many things as gross as that – except to use ketchup as a base for making a sauce. I’m about as Irish as they come, but would get out the oil and garlic long before the ketchup …or Prego. We need to make some sauce together.
Oyyyyyvveeeeyyyyyy… sauce together? Good idea. 🙂
Now that’s going a bit too far!
