This weekend we got together with our good friends the Garcia's. They've had us over quite a bit and so we thought we'd try and cook something decent for them. It was kinda scary for me because Julez is the cook for the nursing home that Matt works for so he is like a pro cook and I didn't want to make a fool of myself with my "fancy cooking," which is not fancy at all! We had fettuccini and lasagna and it turned out pretty good, except I called my mom and said the the fettuccini sauce needed to be thicker, and she told me to put a little corn starch in and that would help. Well I misheard her or something cause I put corn syrup in to make it thicker :) Also matt wanted to add a little more sugar than the recipe so he added 2 more tablespoons of sugar! :) So it was like a candy fettuccini sauce! :) ha ha whoops! The kids loved it though, they probably felt like they had just poured syrup all over their noodles! They were in heaven! Ha ha At least next time I'll know to put corn STARCH in to make sauce thicker, instead of corn SYRUP :) The rest of the evening was way fun! After dinner we played a couple games of Cornhole, played Cosmic Catch, had popsicles and just hung out! It was a great Sunday!
