Lessons Learned Today

So it's the usual "when life gives you lemons you make lemon aid" right? So when a lovely friend gives me a 4lb box of strawberries I make Strawberry Pasta!!! Yes PASTA, don't be scared try it you sissy!

Strawberry Pasta
1 pint fresh strawberries
1/2 pound spaghetti
1/4 cu grated pecorino or parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
mint sprigs for garnish

Puree the strawberries in a blender. Strain to remove seeds ( I never strain as I have a life). Cook the spaghetti using the package direction; drain and toss with the cheese. Heat the butter and cream in a small saucepan. Move the pasta to a serving bowl, cover with strawberries, and then the butter sauce. Toss well. Serve with additional cheese and garnish with mint, is desired.

I know what I am having for dinner tonight, how about you?
