@snowflake954 Now, that I've got you on the horn...do you have a special local pasta that you buy? Do you make your own, too. It's different over there. Tell all. You don't lard UP from yours.

My favorite pasta is Rummo. It also has a lot of protein, to my surprise--14.5 grams per 100g. I also buy La Molisana, Garofalo, and Barilla. I don't make my own. I could, but usually have to throw a meal together in half an hour. ALWAYS cook pasta al dente. The cooking time is on the package, so I watch the clock like a hawk and pull it out a minute or two before. Pasta keeps cooking after you drain it. Also, drain it and then put it back in the cooking pot (no water) and throw the sauce on right away, stir, and serve immediately. I have everyone standing around ready to dish up.

@snowflake954 Did your Mama-IL add any salt to the water and/or EVOO?

Always add coarse salt--usually sea salt. About a tbl per 400g of pasta and abondant water. No, we never add oil to the water, or spices, just sea salt.

He said, where he came from, the water wasn't seasoned, so he did...do you?

Nope, no seasoning in the water--just salt.

When I watch this, I feel sorry for Jerry. All of those pratfalls really take a toll on the back and body.
@snowflake954 You know what I find interesting. You can fall down on an icy sidewalk and break bones.
You fall down while you're ice skating and don't break anything. What's UP with that. Is it all in your head, many things are.

You're right. I think it's because when you slip on a sidewalk, it's unexpected. When you fall skating, you're expecting a fall and fall in a better way. I don't skate--Mom did, so I'm no expert on the question.

@snowflake954 You know everything. 😍 Thanks a million, for all of the great tips.

I had a dream, but this is your run-of-the-mill kind of dream. I was flying a small airplane, going through walls and I was flying around in houses, too. I would fly through the sheetrock crease, where the roof hooks on. 🤣 I was flying through the northern lights, here, there and everywhere. Wild manuevers. Too many horse divers before bedtime.

Remember. There are entrepreneurs and piles of manure, it takes wisdom to know the difference. I have a foot of new snow. I'm getting pretty slap happy UP in here. Full blown cuckoo bird.
