Neat.

I always loved beans and macaroni as a kid (pasta fazool/pasta fagioli)

Even loved my "greens" like escarole/broccoli/spinach, etc.

Love garlic spaghetti. Made it yesterday. i use a ton of garlic which is a natural antibiotic..........never get colds or flu. Keeps the vampires away.

I'm glad you are taking cooking lessons!!!

p.s.The kids today prefer chicken mc nuggets.....and fries and PIZZA.
