Holy crapola, is it ever WINDY today. I swear, Fargo should be named the Windy City instead of Chicago. The forecast called for blowing dust, and this area would be a good fit for one of those Old Fashion Western films. We haven’t had any rain in awhile here and it is so dry, we need it terribly. Pretty soon we’ll start seeing tumbleweeds flying by our houses. My allergies are going bonkers and that doesn’t mix well with my asthma.
The pasta is cooked in one pot. It almost reminds me of those Lipton noodle packets you can get at the store. I used to get the creamy garlic one all the time and this dish is a lot like that with a lot less sodium. First you cook the garlic in the pan, and then add the milk and chicken stock. While the noodles are cooking away, the garlic flavors them, so in the end you have rich and creamy buttery garlic noodles. Without hardly any work done at all!
I forgot to mention, I have a new mail service set up. You might see a pop up window for that, but if you don’t want to sign up for it feel free to exit out of that. Now, I just have to figure out how to to add all my emails that I collected through feedburner and find out how to send the emails. That would be good to know huh?

I made this for supper tonight. I added some fiddleheads and chicken to it. It was lovely.

They do, but I don’t! What a dilemma…
Jenna says
Do they like spicy foods? You could used crushed red pepper flakes.
Mandi says
I frequently cook for someone with a garlic intolerance, but I want to try to make these! Do they rely heavily on the garlic for flavor, or could i just skip it entirely? is there a different flavor option i could use in place of the garlic?
Jenna says
It was a mix of Parmesan, Ramono, and Mozzarella… The brand was Belgioso.
Kelli says
Um, what cheeses are in the “three cheese blend mix”?
