A Little Fancy Touch
Pasta & Sauce

So we've been a bit sick at my house, so I thought it'd be nice to dress up dinner a bit just so I could feel like I accomplished something besides cuddling babies and wiping noses all day. My hubby was at work, so this dinner was made for me and my toddlers, but who cares right?! Why wait for special company or a special occation to dress up the dinner plate?

We had Penne pasta covered with a Garlic and Herb type sauce with seasoned hamburger pieces (seasoned with black pepper a and Cilantro), and white onions. A bit of freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese, Green bell pepper slices, Black olives, and a small bunch of purple grapes (my son's request). Pictured below is the bread plate, White dinner bread with Butter. We practice the old saying "You break bread with friends, and cut bread with enemies" (unless it's for sandwiches tehe). Finished with a fresh lemon water. This is my son's place setting.
