Unfortunately, Father's Day this past month was not so good to us. Our van was broken down. We had my husband's old car and another little car we were borrowing. On the way to church, my husband's car broke down. I had to drop some kids off with friends at church and go pick him up. On the way home, someone else offered us their van that they didn't currently need. Unbeknown to us, the van was having problems, and died when my husband was driving it home!! (I was already at home; having taken the other car). It didn't break down far from our house, but still... after all of that, my husband had to walk home.... on Father's Day!
But at least he could enjoy this pasta when he finally did get home that day.
By the way, the pasta smelled "seafood-ish" when I opened up the package, but after cooking, tasted just like regular, white pasta. I think I'll save the rest to use at Halloween or something!
