It need not be dull Diet
Not too long, my mother and I were talking about food and diets. "Your grandmother to feed you pasta five nights a week," my mother insisted.
"She did not!" I cried dive. After all, I remembered that my grandmother cook wonderfully varied which could make anything taste wonderful. It was all kinds of dishes, not just pasta! There was spaghetti, of course – she was Italian, after all. But she also Ziti with vegetables. And Linguine. And tuna casserole. macaroni … Just as I finished naming off a typical week of menus, I had to concede the point of my mother – but I made mine too. "But … she did not want us to eat pasta every night!"
