I like noodles and I make pasta a lot, but lasagna is a different story.
For some reason, it’s something I only make for a special occasion.
Well, for one thing, it includes multiple steps, a lot more than a simple pasta dish.
So I made lasagna for dinner, but of course it took longer than I expected, and it was too dark for me to take pictures when it was finally ready.
So the pictures had to be wait until the next morning.
With a few pieces missing (lol).
But actually the lasagna tastes better the next day, if you ask me.
The layers are beautiful!
You take a piece, microwave it, and it’s ready to go.
No wait!
We have to get the table ready first.
This is one of my favorite retro plates.
I like the color and the design, but I like to use this plate for blog pictures because of its unique size, not too big and not too small.
I found these cool glasses at a restaurant that we had dinner at in Door County, WI, a few years ago.
The food was not that memorable unfortunately, but I loved these glasses, and luckily I was able to buy them at their little souvenir shop.
To me this carbs x carbs is a “no-no”, but I understand some people like to have a slice of bread with lasagna (or any dish).
We use these glasses mostly for drinking wine.
For some reason we hardly ever use an actual wine glass with a long stem.
Oh, I know why “I” stay away from those glasses; I’m always afraid that they tip over easily.
