Entertaining Myself with Pasta - Monday, 23 January

As I was wandering through la Grande Épicerie de Paris today I spied this bag of mixed pasta shapes and colors - notice that there is even one shaped like the Eiffel Tower!  Just couldn't resist them.  And it got quite chilly tonight, so I decided to grab a jar of nice fresh tomato sauce and cook at "home" - I still had some yummy olives and a couple kinds of cheese and a nice bottle of wine in the apartment.

The pasta tasted like, well, pasta.  But it was entertaining.  I think we'd all agree that "entertainment" is one of the objectives of a vacation.  OK, maybe we obtain it in different ways, but I'm callin' this one as a success!
