sometimes you throw together one of those last minute meals and you totally hit the nail right on the head. last night was so one of those nights. i'd had a rather crappy afternoon so i dragged myself home, making a quick stop at people's food co-op and the main street party store for last minute supplies (veggies and beer). the roomie came to pick me up (and buy cod liver oil--it was on sale!), which was good because it's cold cold cold here!

i made the following tasty delicious dinner:
bowtie pasta with sauce consisting of broccoli, fake sausage, grape tomatoes, mushrooms, shallots with the help of butter, veggie stock, oregano, basil, salt, pepper and red wine vinegar and a little flour to thicken it up.

accompanied by a tasty delicious Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold, the lovely company of my lovely roommate and everything seemed better than it had a few hours previous.

today i woke up feeling productive and made some banana bread. can't wait to eat some when i get home from work!
