semiotic_pirateWell, spaghetti day anyway. From my local, fantastic, GFCF bakery I found containers of italian seasoned breadcrumbs... I'm very much looking forward to taking some grass fed ground beef and getting my hands full of it, eggs, the breadcrumbs, and other things, and making some truly wonderful meatballs to go with some tasty pasta.
The pasta will likely be one primarily made of quinoa and corn. This type of pasta is much better tasting and with better mouthfeel than those made from rice. I'm not talking rice noodles made in Asian dishes - those are tasty in their own right - but the ones that are made to fulfill the Italian pasta dishes.
It's been quite a change to start enjoying meal planning and cooking again.
If any of you are unfamiliar with the saying "Wednesday is Prince Spaghetti Day!" you only need to know that I grew up just north of Boston, Massachusetts in a small city called that was once the location of the Prince Spaghetti factory.
At one time, I lived very near to the train overpass that appears in the above photo. At another time, I would drive down that street and see that sign every day on my way to work. There was an award-winning “Wednesday Is Prince Spaghetti Day” spot ran nationally for 13 years - hopefully my embedding skills will allow you to watch it:
These days, people joke that Wednesday is the sabbath for the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. That's as good a reason as any for the making and eating of the practically ritualistic/traditional pasta meal.
