Spaghetti Squash: How I love you.

The diet, day 4…

What are we going to eat???????  This question plagued me all day long. Dinner has become this large monster ready to take me down.

I had seen on Dr. Oz this vegetable called Spaghetti Squash.  You cook it, and afterwards, you tear the meat out with a fork.  It becomes this fine spaghetti type substance.  It is actually pretty good by itself, but I thought we needed more zing.  So I whipped up a garlic, mushroom, tomato, onion, and pepper sauce and then toasted some rice bread.  You know, it wasn’t bad.  It was actually better than regular pasta!  Go figure.

In other news, I am painting the studio tomorrow.  This is an activity I am looking forward to.  I know, crazy, right?  Well, Steve will have the baby, and I will have some time to listen to tunes and work.  Nice.  We have also decided to try to find GOOD homes for our dogs.  This makes me terribly sad, but we don’t have the time to be the dog owners we should be.  I’m praying hard that God will drop the right people into our lives who will enjoy our wonderful pets.  I can’t talk anymore about that…it truly breaks my heart.  I love my doggies.

Well…that’s about it for today.  To do list item #5, “Write blog”, CHECK!

    I *love* spaghetti squash. A coworker introduced me to it years ago and said, just eat it like spaghetti. I did.. and the results were yummy! I sprung it on Sam one night for dinner and he was a little harder to convince. Said maybe with a different sauce. (I used regular jarred up sauce which can be sweet.. and since the squash is a little on the sweeter side itself the two didn’t mesh well). Your sauce sounds wonderful, on the other hand, and includes just about every single ingredient I could ever want in a sauce.. lol. I will have to try it and re-present spaghetti squash to Sam.
