President's Day ~ Spaghetti Stuffed Sausage ~ Melinda ~ Alfredo & Virginia ~ Crab Stuffed Flounder


Good 28º frozen foggy morning. Yesterday heated to the high 50º's even thought the sky was clear and sunny.


Today in Canada, it's Family Day. Here in the USofA it's President's Day. It's the day when President BO walks out of the White House, and if he sees his shadow, we all have 4 more years of bull sh*t!!!  
 

Ok, so just before my computer went to Turk I made the spaghetti stuffed sausage. It was interesting to say the least. I got some small short sausages, stuffed angel hair pasta into each 3-4 strands at a time, cooked them in boiling salted water, and then added them to some of my marinara sauce. I also served that with an artichoke boiled with olive oil drizzled down inside the choke, lemon juice, and sprinkled with garlic powder and sea salt. OMGOOD!!

Even though it was tasty, it was still a lot more work than just cooking the sausage and spaghetti separately and mixing in with the sauce.


This for the ladies.... ya'll know how EVERYONE loves firemen..... (LOL .. yes, they don't give tickets!)
