I’ve been on a spaghetti kick lately.  I remember when I was little, my mom always used to make it.  My sister loved it and always asked for it.  I hated it.  I don’t know why; I just didn’t think it tasted very good.  Now that I’m older, I see why my mom used to make it all the time: it’s fast and easy; add a salad topped with veggies, and you’ve got a filling healthy meal.  Plus, I have a couple little tweaks that make all the difference – angel hair noodles instead of spaghetti noodles, and fresh, grated, locally made Parmesan cheese.  Maybe it’s the tweaks that make it taste better; but it’s the flavor of memories from home that make me enjoy every bite.

My sister had her second child this weekend, so I’m a little sentimental.  Welcome to the world baby boy.  I can’t wait to meet you.  One day, I bet your mommy will make spaghetti for you too.
