I spent my Father's Day afternoon helping my daughter with her physics class homework. A lot of those formulas I haven't touched in a very long time, so I had my Raspberry Pi computer next to me on the kitchen table looking stuff up to help her. I learned that the shortcut to convert meters per second to kilometers per hour is 18/5. So 5 meters per second becomes 18 kph. Neat.
Then for dinner, I made my daughter's favorite cream spaghetti. The sauce is simple: stir fry some bacon or smoked salmon with a bit of garlic and basil, then it's one medium carton of heavy cream, and after you dump it into the sauce pan, add about 1/3rd of that carton with marsala wine. Simmer it to cook out the alcohol, then add chopped spinach. She loves that. Despite getting soaked in a sudden rain downpour while I rode my bike home from doing some quick shopping in the evening, it was a good day.
How AWESOME!! Thank you for telling us this. I lost my father to Cancer and I miss him. This day you had made me so Happy Fren!
I was Daddy's Girl. I loved (Most of the time) when he helped me with my homework. We would have disagreements, but it was all part of us "discussing" the homework.
I am going to have to try that dinner!!!!!!! Have you tried it with bacon AND smoked salmon? You REALLY had me at 'heavy cream'.
I used to have a Harley Sportster 883 Low, but I let someone 'borrow' it a long time ago and they wrecked it and it ended up getting auctioned off. :-(
But, that is ok.
THANK YOU AGAIN for sharing your day!!! Makes me HAPPY!!
You're welcome! Yeah, go nuts with the recipe. I worked at a pasta restaurant and they served a smoked salmon cream sauce spaghetti. I peeked in the recipe book and saw how extremely simple it was. I once tried it with regular white wine and it was not as good. The marsala wine is best. I forgot to mention that I added beech mushrooms. Here in Japan these are more common than the white/brown mushrooms I was used to in America.
