TGIF

Ahh, Friday Night. It's a comfort to know that I can sleep in tomorrow, that I don't have to wear dress clothes for another 2 days, that I can turn my brain off. I had the option of going out with some friends this evening but decided to stay home and finish my book with a nice glass of wine instead. It was a busy week and I had LOTS on my mind; I could use the quiet time to un-stress.

But in my effort to un-stress, I actually re-stressed. Why? Because I'm hungry and there is nothing worse than cooking for yourself. I detest when i look up at the clock and think "well, sh*t. It's almost 9 and I still haven't eaten dinner. f**k." Cooking for 1 is a huge waste of time, energy, and FOOD. it's almost impossible to make a great meal for 1 unless you make it for 4 and have a lot of leftovers.

Pasta is my fail-safe. no matter what, I will always have a box of rotini/penne and a jar of sauce ready for the eating. you really can't go wrong. If only there was carb-free pasta....
