Just a food post

La la la.  I want to post, but I don’t feel like writing anything serious.  Umm, here’s what I am planning to have for dinner.

Super Simple Summer Spaghetti  (alliteration!)

*Pasta  (I used a mix of whole wheat spaghetti and penne - an odd combination, but I’m trying to use up what’s left in my cupboards

*Basil (grown myself, started from seeds in a bottle cap)

*Tomatoes (I used three varieties, given to me by a neighbor who comes back with a bag of vegetables whenever she returns from her hometown in Okayama)

* Mozzarella cheese

*Olive oil

*Salt

Rip up the basil, chop up the tomatoes and discard at least most of the seeds, and cut the cheese.  Put it all in a bowl, drizzle olive oil, add salt, mix it up and let it sit in the fridge overnight.  Boil pasta, drain but do not rinse, and put the hot pasta in with the other stuff.  Stick in the fridge a bit more to cool it off, and eat!
