Cleaning Day Pasta

I forgot to write last night, but Donna was right, The Sweet Potatoes with Red Beans was better the second night after I let it cook longer. Not cooking it on low was a problem. If you cannot cook it on low, wait until you can. She also agreed with Jim in the need for more beans. She doubled the recipe as she has 3 football players in the house. Double the beans would have been 28 oz. She had a 40 oz. can. She said it was perfect.
Today was clean the house day. It was horrendous. Luckily I had pasta and more of the Basil tomato sauce that Jim liked. Look back about a month for the recipe. I served it with Adele Italian sausage. We had a special wine that that was given to us by Sandy and Dave. Jim says this is an example of the bottle being worth more than the wine. It was a 2001 Jacob’s Creek, Shiraz Cabernet from Australia. It was decorated with a big red, white and blue bow, over a Christmas ornament. Under that carved in gold is Peace on Earth and the name of Dave’s Company that makes a special kind of fishing boat. I think we stored it the right amount of time as it was very good.
