last-day-of-summer pasta

Goodbye tomatoes, it’s been a rough summer. Hope things go better next year. Hey there string beans. I will always love you. Hello shell beans. We’ll get to know each other better this fall and winter. You all go so nicely with pasta, garlic, parsley, olive oil, a small squeeze of lemon, and lots of pecorino romano cheese.

John and I re-visited our dining-together roots tonight by making some fast and easy pasta, the way we used to when we were students on a budget (wait a sec, we still are). I’m even posting this as I should be studying furiously for tomorrow’s Anatomy & Physiology midterm. Some things never change.
