Tonight I cooked dinner. It may not sound like an event to you, but it’s quite rare for me. Not only is it a novel occassion in its own right, but the meal turned out really good. My critic (Justin) gave it a 9/10. Bueno!
The dish was the ever-so-healthy penne a la vodka. OK, maybe it’s not healthy – but it is good! I made it pretty much exactly like the recipe instructs. I only added a little cayenne pepper to the sauce. I also braised chicken in olive oil with just some salt and pepper. Sliced that up and it went on top (as did crushed red pepper on mine). So yummy! I should’ve taken a photo. It was pretty and pink too.
Mom gave Justin and I a bottle of Riesling that she acquired on her drive back from Chicago with Val! (they were roadtrip buddies). It went perfectly with the dish. I know you’ll want to make it now. :) If you do – let me know how it goes!
I also finally got around to added photos of Halloween. I was probably motivated because both Alex and Marisa put up photos of their recent trip to Aruba. Now if I ever get around to adding our fall foliage shots of Portland, ME…
