Italian? Pasta salad? Or maybe a delicious, decadent dessert? (I love that word: decadent. Sounds so...sinful) I've cooked a few dinner meals and learned a few things (reading the recipe is ALWAYS a good thing) but now I think I want to stretch it out a bit. Do I stick with dinner and make something Italian? Or do I push the boundaries and make a fairly simple pasta salad for lunch or a dessert worthy of a king? Well, maybe not THAT good the first time. But pretty darn close.
I have actually cooked all of those before. Just never enjoyed it like I'm doing now. And if I pick Italian, do I start simple with a homemade spaghetti sauce or just throw caution to the winds and go for the big one, lasagna? Hmmm....
And a pasta salad could be anything I wanted it to be. There are so many different possibilities that I wouldn't even know where to start with that one. But should I go for easy or more elaborate? Should it be cold or hot? Just looking through SOME of the recipes for pasta salad took quite a while. Maybe I'll just close my eyes and point to one.
Dessert. Who doesn't like dessert? My first thought of dessert is something chocolate. So that narrows it down quite a bit. Maybe a cake but something unique or something that isn't offered very often.
Not sure yet which one I'll choose although just writing about them makes me hungry. I am leaning more toward the Italian choice (I love Italian food) so maybe I'll start there. Wait. Here's a thought although possibly more than I should even think about taking on at this point in my self-education.
Why not all three? Hmm....definitely worth thinking about!
Thanks for listening. Will let you know my decision!
