Summer Camp - Day 3



"Hey Buddy, do you want me to pack some of that yummy pasta we had last night for lunch?"

"No thanks. I would probably eat it all up and then burp and that would irritate GiGi."

"I see."

"Yeah, we're getting married today. I'm probably going to kiss her on the cheek when she's not looking."

"You're getting married today?"

"Yeah Mom, I'm 5."

-----------------------------------------

I made this pasta sauce with what I had in the fridge and pantry. It was delicious and really fast.
Hubby just had some for breakfast.

Pasta In A White Cream Sauce Recipe
  • Put water on to boil for the pasta.
Cream Sauce
  • In a saucepan at medium heat melt a whole stick of unsalted butter.
  • Add a cup and a half of half and half.
  • about 2 teaspoons of flour.
  • 1/4 of a cup of white onion.
  • Garlic Salt (I would have added crushed garlic but someone 'Hubby' used it and didn't tell me.)
  • 1 Teaspoon of Herbs De Provence.
Stir and watch so it doesn't burn.

Drain pasta, put it back in the pot, add sauce. Top with lots of fresh parmesan cheese, fresh herbs if you have them and some cracked pepper.



Calee, you told me this would happen!

Summer Camp - Day 2


"Mom, I can't have the EXACT same thing for lunch that I had yesterday."

"Why not?"

"It's not my style."

"Really? What would you like me to pack for lunch?"

"Hmmm. How about some treats and a chocolate croissant and some chocolate milk?"

"You're fun, but no...... Did you have fun at Summer Camp yesterday?"

"Yeah, don't tell anybody but I held GiGi's hand during Kung Fu Panda."

"Really?"

"Today I might kiss her hand."

"Don't grow up too fast, Buddy."

"Mom, I grow up when I grow up."
