Same! Cavatappi with tomato sauce and spicy Italian sausage 
Yes please!!!
And summer pasta a la egg noodle linguine is the best around our house, often with too much garlic, fresh veggies, a dollop of quality basil pesto & lemon zest, served with grated parmigiano reggiano.
Speaking of which, on Monday my wife and I enjoyed a 30min walk home (three bus stops' away) after a huge meal to avoid the very topic of the thread, and passed by this very place.
The funny thing is that "comma" spelled 코마/koma is an understood grammatical concept in Korean, and as it easily rolls off the tongue like the very similar-sounding word 고마/goma "shorty, little dude, young kid etc.", you'll find this sort of thing featured here and there for no reason.
I reckon the downtime between "dosages" would explain it all

No Chianti?
Nowadays a children`s portion of pasta is more than sufficient for me...
Hey B,
You-Tube, ''Cooking with the Blues''
Make Jack Chaplin's Sicilian Pasta.
Slight variation...use boiling water not pasta water, and fully cook the pasta, drain and rinse.
I find following his recipe to the letter, with the partially cooked pasta, not rinsed, and using the pasta water to thin the sauce, makes the sauce too starchy...calories you don't need!
Too bad jack has passed away...complications from a multiple by-pass.
His recipes are great, easy, and super quick!
Best,
BIB.

In my house the drug of choice for pasta OD is baked ziti. When anybody has a rough day, that's the go-to.
I cannot get anybody in my house onboard with sausage and peppers. It might be one of the best foods of all time and nobody likes it. It's perplexing.

I will. That looks tasty. But I should know better than to be looking at food related content this early in the day. Now I'm starving.

I’m Italian and my wife is Mexican and we both cook. She’s a better cook than me but still we have the best of both worlds.
Here is some ravioli I made with broccolini
And also homemade tamales my wife made

Last night I made Chicken Scarpariello - braised chicken with Italian sausage and peppers. Even better than sausage and peppers!
Daddy Jack was amazing!!
Easy Recipes, quick, and quantities to suite your personal taste.
He could do a lot with an onion.
Best,

If an Italian restaurant doesn't have sausage and peppers, they are a fake.

It may not always agree with me but yea it isn’t a real Italian restaurant if they don’t have it.

The absolute best lasagna I've ever had was at a restaurant in London England. Beat the places I'd been to in Rome. Go figure.

The worst Italian food I’ve ever had was in Venice. And had to deal with severs trying to swindle my wife and I multiple time. Obviously it’s a tourist trap but we really did make an effort to seek out good food. Unsuccessfully. But man, what an unbelievable city. Those were definitely some of the best few days I’ve ever spent traveling. But the food and service situation was not impressive.
