Sometimes "old fashioned" food is tops...

Sunday lunch:

Starters - stuffed mushroom caps - stuffing was made with bits of crispy
bacon, chopped mushroom stems, chopped fresh garlic and spring onion -
topped off with grated cheddar cheese.

Followed by - Roast chicken with roast spuds and veggies (carrots, peas
and corn).

We enjoyed it... simple but good.

Pasta with meat sauce. The new twist was that I made the pasta with
(mostly) whole wheat flour, which grandma and the aunts would never
do.

The pasta came out especially good this time; I think because I
kneaded it well enough (usually I get bored and wander off) and let it
rest at room temp for an hour.

I also found that I could use the warming drawer on my oven as a
pasta-drying drawer for the extra fettucine. But I'll have to
remember to set a timer.

what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear
and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There
is another theory which states that this has already happened."

Home made pasta - sounds good...
