National Spaghetti Day?

[STCM(SW)]

Jan. 4 marks National Spaghetti Day in the U.S.

Though spaghetti is known as an Italian dish, the pasta's origins are actually disputed.

I never heard of it before and I make a lot of pasta......

Works for me. That and pizza are the basic building blocks of life.

Just told my Italian wife, I guess I know what's for supper now.

I celebrated a few days early, my bad.

Wish I'd read this thread before putting fish sticks, chicken nuggets, and fries in the oven!

Maybe I'll have some later tonight.

In the mid/late 60's Mom kept these in stock as after school "this'll hold you over until dinner time" survival food. I wouldn't even warm it up. Straight outta the can with either a Vernor's ginger ale or a Barq's cream soda.

I actually really like Chef Boy Howdy Spaghetti and Meatballs.

That's what I call it.

ladder13, that looks just like what my kids call our "Christmas Spaghetti" that we have every Christmas Eve for our family dinner. Everyone loves it.

My kids were wild about spaghetti-O's, But even a light meal was 2 cans! So one was with sauce and the other was with mini meat balls.

When ground beef and sausage became more abundant (and the 4 kids were bigger) Real spaghetti and real meatballs were on the menu once or twice a month. The sauce came from our garden! Then came a glass of red wine and garlic bread, a small salad.

All I can say is Italian Night was to die for!

Somewhere, someone is waiting an hour in line at an Olive Garden to celebrate.

A moment of silence for Jack (Mama Mia, that's a spicy meatball) Somack

and Tom (on top of spaghetti) Glazer.

Roman Holliday, Spaghetti

It probably seems a bit strange, for a born, and raised Switzer, to make the best spaghetti that I ever tasted, but mom's recipe, 'Roman Holiday', was undoubtedly, the best.

I'd trade my front row seat in Hades, for a generous serving of mom's Roman Holiday, spaghetti to celebrate National Spaghetti Day. Sadly, that can't be, as mom Passed away in 1993 at 88yrs of age'

I still have her great recipe, stashed away somewhere, but haven't had any of that scrumptious spaghetti in a long time.

We just got back from spin class and my wife cooked up some high protein spaghetti with high protein turkey balls.

I must take a bunch to make a meal.

They're not too bad. Nowhere near as good as pork but they have more protein and less fat. What we really need to do is make our own with ground bison.

That's ironic. Wife fixed spaghetti tonight for supper........We had no clue.......Us country folks never knew.
