I loved it! You'll be telling these stories about your kids later one and people will laugh so hard. Maybe a little painful now, but very hilarious later on! Sort of like when my daughter 'mooned' the audience during a dance recital when she was about 3 years old. Needless to say, I yanked her out of dance lessons forever! PS.....I am enjoying all of these Cooking Light recipes; so yummy and still good for us. Can you post this on my blog hop going on right now? Totally up to you.

My boys are dreadful to take (they are 8 and 12) and hate shopping anyway and my 17 year old why not quite as bad as her brothers, always "needs" so much stuff while we are out that based alone on my empty wallet afterward I don't enjoy taking her ;o)<br />But that pasta, now that sounds divine!
