Comfort food in cold weather

Everyone loves Macaroni with Cheese
Everyone loves Macaroni with Cheese

It’s cold and wet and no one wants to go outside… and days like today ( and this week from what I hear) call for Macaroni with Cheese. Laura would like some Macaroni ( Penne Pasta) with Cheese ( not all shown in this picture) for Saturday. Saturday is the one day we cook a special meal… a ‘treat’ so to speak.

Popular dishes have many folks claiming ownership and Macaroni with Cheese traces it’s lineage to Thomas Jefferson who as legend tells it brought over a macaroni mold from the continent… and the rest is history! ( Click on the picture above for  the full history and our recipe). It’s funny that no one claims to be the father or mother of tuna casserole!

Nothing like making a simple dish better.

Roger Freberg

ps. we’ll have a nice sweet wine and a great dessert on Saturday … but the main dish will be wonderful
