Rigatoni alla Vecchia Bettola.

A rich, vodka and tomato-based sauce, tossed with plenty of oregano, parmesan cheese and pasta. Served with broccoli.

I imagine George Hamilton is pretty rich, which would be the second thing he has in common with this meal, along with color.

Spaghetti and meatballs.

Spaghetti with your choice of white sauce or red sauce...I chose red. Fresh green salad, check. Huge meatballs, check. Garlic bread, check.

And an honorable mention to the "Chocolate Surprise" cupcakes Mrs Hornsby made. They were incred. Oh, and the surprise was cream cheese and chocolate chips. YUP.

Minestrone soup.

Lunch at the Olive Garden. It's been a really long time since I've had minestrone, and I definitely don't remember it being as good as this was. I was pretty impressed.

Two

Chocolate gelato with Almond Roca chunks.

It's been really hot today so gelato seemed like a good idea (it was). Italian is 2 for 2 now, Mrs Stepp....

One

Ground turkey, tomato and spinach lasagna.

Dinner for breakfast at lunchtime - looks like I covered all my bases. This was pretty delicious, even if I say it myself. And it's just as good as leftovers as it was new, which isn't something you can say about a lot of food...like Cheerios.
