I LOV...Oh Mike, I sure have missed being over here. I LOVED your comment about your "dream" on my blog. All that you said is ALL that I see in you ALREADY! It's exactly where I see you headed. You are dynamic! There is just something about you in front of that camera and your connection to food and your warmth and humor, without trying to be funny, you make people feel like they REALLY know you. Like you are their BEST friend. Like they are right there in the kitchen with you. You are just SO much fun and at ease and just yourself. I go away from watching your vids just happy and grinning.(I'd seen the marinara one way back but I even watched it again.) Lol!! :) <br /><br />I also adored the story of your mom. I too am a pasta freak. When I was a kid we each got to choose what we wanted mom to make on our birthdays, and all my siblings would groan because I ALWAYS wanted pasta. LOL!!! <br /><br />You HAVE to try making a tahini sauce for pasta. You take raw or roasted tahini (sesame seed paste) and mix raw crushed garlic, olive oil, tamari (or Bragg Amino acids - like soy sauce but better for you), some water, you can add cayenne or cumin or whatever other flavorings you want but I start with the basics. You may or may not like it but I LOVE it. <br /><br />Thank you for all your amazing comments. They have moved me so many times lately. I've been buried in book related work and speaking...and book isn't even out yet. :O LOL!!<br />Hugs, <br />RobinRobin Eastonhttp://www.nakedineden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-807108710807890984.post-86657914072863123132009-05-09T00:13:00.000-07:002009-05-09T00:13:00.000-07:00my autism insights: i love veggie lasagna too...an...my autism insights: i love veggie lasagna too...and try it with the quinoa, it rocks.<br /><br />barry: that's a wonderful story...our habits do rub off on our children, that's why we should make them good habits...<br /><br />yira: all things italian? cool...<br /><br />4udiary: thanks...<br /><br />betchai: can't go wrong with garlic, onions, tomatoes, and eggplant...or lasagna<br /><br />kriz: i can't wait for the farmer's market to start selling farm-fresh tomatoes...<br /><br />g.kannan: good luck, let me know how they turn out...<br /><br /><br />peace and amore,<br /><br />mikeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06619996824958462393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-807108710807890984.post-38116142618780165922009-05-08T20:14:00.000-07:002009-05-08T20:14:00.000-07:00Veg recipes are too tempting.

I grew up on Italian food because all my relatives on my mother's side are Italian. <br /><br />I am trying to cook healthier for my family and about a week ago I made this really good pasta premavera. I made home made whole wheat egg noodles and used fresh vegetables with a little olive oil. My kids loved it! I'll have to share my recipe on my blog for you. <br /><br />Have a wonderful day!Cascia Talberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12001701584084843029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-807108710807890984.post-48953128957558379992009-05-08T05:16:00.000-07:002009-05-08T05:16:00.000-07:00Lasagna is a family favorite.
