The Best Thinkg I Ever Ate

How quickly my resolves go. Merely one day and two prompts into announcing a daily post, I fell off the wagon and did not post last night. I worked until 7PM and then 24 was on....then a re-run of Criminal Minds I had not seen before and POOF...before I knew it, it was time for bed....and all I did last night was sit on my couch like a hypnotized potato.

So, here I am at work without my prompt book...guess I'll have to use my imagination.

While being a potato on some other recent night, I was channel surfing and came across a Food Network show called The Best Thing I Ever Ate. Top US Chef's talked about their favorite restaurant food cooked by some other restaurant. The local entry (local to me) was Anne Sather's Cinnamon Rolls in Chicago. If I ever actually get to Chicago, I may try one....That's the thing about suburban living....I'm 45 minutes from a world class city like Chicago and I never go there. Mike and I have made a plan to do so when it warms up.

Another entry was from a restaurant somewhere in California and I don't remember the name of the restaurant but I do remember the name of the dish. It was called Pasta Mamma and it was a simple concoction of eggs scrambled with fresh linguini.

Sunday, I made a cheap o version of Pasta Mamma and bought a cheap box of spaghetti, cooked it, then scrambled one serving of spaghetti with 3 eggs.......GAH!!!!!

IT WAS TO DIE FOR!!!! I wonder how much extra flavor the fresh linguni adds to it.

Now this could be dressed up all kinds of ways....onions, peppers...cheese, but let me tell you....it is super addicting and super good just plain....eggs and pasta.

Now, if it were only calorie free.....that's just too much to ask.

Wow haven't checked in a week or so, all of sudden there's 3 new posts! Keep it up, I love reading them! And don't give up on your writing, maybe it won't get you fame and fortune, but it definitely entertains me :)

I have absolutely no clue how many people read my blog, it's become a random dump of things I ponder about, ride reports, cool videos I run into and cute dog pictures... Probably not very interesting to others LOL
