May 24 - Spaghetti with meat sauce

We're back, but almost completely without food?! I dug around in the freezer for a little yesterday and uncovered a frozen bag of the spaghetti meat sauce I made a few weeks ago...so pasta it was! The cupboards are so barren I didn't even have anything to serve with it. With Luke's birthday tomorrow, I know I won't get to the store until at least Wednesday. Sounds like it's pizza for Tuesday!
