We decided to make up a big batch of our spaghetti sauce on Christmas day. The idea was to have a nice, filling dinner and plenty of leftovers to eat for lunches.
I spent the bulk of the afternoon making the sauce, but late in the afternoon, Juli realized we didn't have any spaghetti! When making the list for the previous day's shopping list, we'd made sure to list all of the sauce ingredients we didn't have on stock, but somehow we forgot to add spaghetti.
Thankfully, we did have some macaroni on hand, so we had our spaghetti sauce with macaroni. This made for a good meal, though perhaps not quite as nice as if we'd had the spaghetti. We served it up with garlic bread and a side Caesar salad.
All in all, this made for a good first Xmas dinner in our new home.
I am so happy you guys are doing a little cooking, not to mention blogging! I've missed you! :-) I've gotta try the soup recipe. Sounds like a winner!
ReplyDeleteGood to be back! Although it seems like we'll never be done with moving all the little stuff left in the old place. We're going to make another valiant attempt this Saturday.
