a week and half before our SS checks get here, I had planned on Spaghetti... but decided to do something different along the theme. So, tonight I bought some fresh living basil and am going to make Penne All'Arrabbiata. Since we like spicy food in this house, I'm looking forward to it. Serving it with fresh baked Rosemary and Olive Oil Italian bread. With fresh strawberries and cream for dessert.

Not too bad for a shopping trip that I kept under $40 bucks for the night's dinner for the three of us.
