a few nights ago - the Tomato Sauce with Chopped Vegetables (pg. 153) is stupidly tasty - I wouldn't have thought because the veg to tomato ratio is so skewed - there's barely enough tomato to bind it together. But the carrot makes it sweet and the celery becomes melty with a slight crunch. I thought I wouldn't like it because I don't like celery - you can't even taste it except that it lends a certain je ne sais quoi to the sauce. On fusilli so that the spirals can pick up the veg chunks.
Last night, just fusilli with jarred "red pesto" (pesto rosso) which has sundried tomatoes as its first ingredient instead of basil. It's a nice change from regular pesto but we both prefer the green stuff. This tasted a lot like olives - strange, since there were no olives IN it - but there you go.
My cold came back at the beginning of the week but it's almost gone again - soon we shall actually be well enough to start going to see things again! (maybe!)
