inside...and outside

when the outside looks like this...

rainy day

the perfect response is...

your husband's slippers
style 32/365::my husband's slippers

a warm bowl of something yummy
my favorite pasta

and staying as close as possible to a sleeping dog
the perfect way to spend a rainy, cold day

the pasta recipe (if you can call it that):
this is all for a single serving as I'm the only one in the house that eats vegetables
cook a single serving of pasta in salted water, drain (I prefer spaghetti, but linguine works too)
saute about a cup to a cup and a half of chopped mushrooms, black olives and spinach in extra light olive oil for about 3-5 minutes
(I season with basil, garlic powder, onion salt and sea salt but feel free to experiment with your fave flavors)
toss with warm pasta
sprinkle (or, if you are like me...coat) pasta mix with grated parmesan cheese
ENJOY

How's your friday?

I had very similar to this for dinner last night 'cept I included onions, some oyster sauce, and had it on rice instead of spaghetti. I LOVE onion salt on a lot of my sauteed food!

Wonderful photos, Brandi!

That looks so good, Brandi. I'll have to try it, myself. And I'll definitely be *coating* it in Parmesan. ;)

I loved your rain pics, esp. the one taken in traffic. Wonderful!
