I still haven't got around to doing anything more about my UFOs......I've been really busy at work, and soooooo tired in the evenings it's all I can do to rustle up something quick and easy to eat in front of the tv and flop into bed! The weekends get away from me, they just wizz by and before I know where I am it's Monday again and off to work......the words "vicious" and "circle" spring to mind!
Still, cooking's a craft isn't it? And I do like to cook when I have the inclination. As I've got older I tend to go for recipes that are quick and simple, although I will pull the stops out for an occasional feast! BTW if you have a look at my little list of blogs that I visit, (incomplete list I hasten to add in case any of my cheffie friends aren't on there yet! :o) ) you will see where my priorities are!! Feel free to visit their world, they are all lovely ladies that I have met through Recipezaar which is a great place to find new recipes as well as friends.
I made some lovely pasta last night, with a sauce that was simply some cherry tomatoes (from my one plant in the garden!) cut in half and cooked with a finely chopped garlic clove in a little olive oil. Heat the oil first and then stir in the tomatoes and garlic. Give it a good stir, cover and cook gently for about 10 minutes, then mash lightly with the back of a spoon. Stir it into freshly cooked pasta, with a handful of torn basil leaves (I'm loving my fresh basil in the garden too!) and sprinkle with parmesan......yummy!!!

Cooking is most certainly a craft and the cook, is the creator! Fresh tomato sauce sounds delicious!
