The Worst Dinner Ever

On Mondays I teach piano lessons until 5:30pm so dinners aren't usually stellar on these nights. (Except for Tuesdays when I teach until 6:00pm and dinners are usually frozen french fries.)

But not last night! I decided that we would have spaghetti, which is simple but tasty. So I started boiling my water and then got to work making chocolate parfaits for FHE dessert.

The water boiled, I threw in the noodles, finished making the parfaits and then opened the fridge to get the spaghetti sauce that was left over in there. But I couldn't find it. I looked on every shelf, sure it was hiding somewhere because I knew there was sauce in there somewhere!

There wasn't.

So I ran down to the storage room. No spaghetti sauce. We didn't even have tomato sauce to put on the noodles.

So what did I do? The girls and I sat at the kitchen table and ate plain spaghetti noodles with our fingers.

When Clay came home I told him of our "stellar" dinner. He didn't say anything, just dumped the rest of the noodles down the drain.

The parfaits were good, though.

Um... someday dinners are just like that. We have popcorn and orange julius quite often around these parts!
