Pasta

Authored by Greg Fletcher
One of my favorite things to watch on cable tv is cooking shows. I have been watching them every night to get ideas for what to cook for dinner. The other night I made Giada's Manicotti with Parmesan cheese and it was so good! Pasta is my favorite thing to eat, so I think I am going to be making a lot of her recipes! My family is pretty thrilled with my new hobby. There was a time when I was considering going to culinary school, but now I am just thinking I can learn everything I need to from the Food Network! Cooking helps me get into a zone where I can forget about everything from my day and just focus on something else. Some people get the same effect from exercising, but I could never imagine running for fun. I much rather stir a bowl of something yummy and then get to enjoy eating it and watching my family enjoy eating it also! Since I started cooking these meals, we have sat down and had dinner together every night of the week. It is the best family time!

I am so excited about my new purchase! After being a poor college student for four years and not having cable, I went on tvbydirect.com and got a great deal. I knew this would be my first purchase after getting a job. I am most excited about watching all the cooking shows. That is how unwind at night. I love to try a new recipe and I get most of mine from FoodNetwork.com. Now, I will be able to watch the episode and make that meal the next night for dinner! My boyfriend will be seriously happy about this investment because it will mean some really good meals for him. My favorite show is Everyday Italian. Probably because I love any sort of pasta dish. Giada makes the most delicious meals and most of them are easy enough for me to make. I also love how all the food looks on the Food Network. It is all so pretty and bright looking. Another favorite of mine is 30 minute meals. Those meals are very easy, which is good after a long day at work.
