New Year Spaghetti

Happy New Year everyone! It's been a tumultuous 2014. Lets all pray and hope for a better 2015. My husband of almost 20 years prepared our New Year's Eve dinner yesterday. First time in 20 years! It was a wonderful pasta with minced pork and tomato sauce.






My husband got my two boys involved from the shopping to the cooking. We all squeezed ourselves in our small kitchen.


It was a memorable New Year's Eve. I will certainly remember this day and most grateful for it. It was just the 4 of us and my mum. Eating and having a great glass of wine.

I don't have exact ingredients. It was all by touch and feel!

What you need:

Pasta of choice - boiled and kept aside

1 Bombay onion, 3 inches of ginger and 1 pip of garlic ground
Bombay onion - one is fine

Minced pork (half a kg or so for 4 to 5 people)
A little butter

Parsley
parsley chopped as small as possible


Oregano (fresh or otherwise)
Salt to taste
Red chillies if you like it spicy (we did not use any)
Chili sauce
1 bottle of tomato/pasta sauce




How to

Heat your wok
Melt butter - about 2 table spoons
Place the port - let it cook

Add in the blended ingredients

Let it simmer for some time

Add the pasta sauce and chili sauce
Teaspoon of oregano
Chopped parsley goes in
Add salt to taste

Serve hot.


A quick meal. Healthy and the family is together. We also had cake - 2 in fact - a fruit cake my mum baked and an ice cream cake from baskins robbins.

It was simply the best New Year's Eve ever for me and I hope for my family!

Happy New Year to all and Happy Teaching!

  6. The certifications required for home health care aide agencies are not the same in different states. Ask them if they are certified by the state. Are they monitored by regulatory authorities? Make sure that they are licensed, insured and bonded so that everything is covered. Ask them about the kind of supervision procedures they follow.http://www.healthsupreviews.com/neurodrol/

  7. This is when a person's foot is flat in all positions, regardless of whether it is "loaded" or "unloaded." Also it will be flat when a person stands on his or her toes. Another problem that people can suffer from is flat foot with a tight heel cord. This is when a person's foot is incapable of being bent back at an angle of more than fifteen degrees due to the calf muscles (which form the achillies tendon) being contracted. Symptoms of these problems will include pain, redness, or calluses.http://www.healthsupreviews.com/creme-del-mar/

  9. The second reason for getting home health care services is that the care you receive is personalised according to the needs of the person. If you visit a nursing home or a hospital, the level of care and support provided is the same for everyone. However, the care provided in your home will be customised based on the needs of your family member. You will be able to provide personalised care to your loved from a professional who is dedicated solely to fulfill the needs of your family member.http://superpowervxfunciona.com/genius-x-funciona/

  11. According to studies institutionalization and hospitalization is no longer considered the best method for health care and recovery. All people have an emotive bond with their residences, and it plays a major role in patient care. People would ideally want to receive medical treatment and care in the environment where they have been living. It is not just the question of preference of the patients, as studies have revealed that much better outcome was recorded, amongst patients who were treated in their homes, compared to patients who were hospitalized. However, it is important to choose the right service to get the expected results; otherwise, the outcome can be worse than hospitalization.http://guidemesupplements.com/neurodrol-scam/
