My cute little granddaughter just had her first birthday, and I just don’t know where the time went. One thing about her is that she has learned to stand her ground. It is kinda funny how they learn at such a young age to stand up for themselves.
If anyone takes anything away from her, she lets them know that she is not going to put up with it. She will let out a squeal and warn you that you better watch out. Ha ha.
I am the youngest in my family and so I am always happy when the youngest stands up for their self. Someone has to watch out for the little guys. And I don’t know about your families, but it seems to be that the little guys grow up and turn into the bigger guys.
How Do I Cook Pasta?
- Boil water in a large pot. To make sure pasta doesn’t stick together, use at least 4 quarts of water for every pound of noodles.
- Salt the water with a tablespoon of salt, if desired. The salty water adds flavor to the pasta.
- Add pasta.
- Stir the pasta.
- Test the pasta by tasting it.
- Drain the pasta.
My youngest is for sure the biggest in our family. My two oldest kids are the smaller of the five of them. Good thing that they are all pretty nice or they might have to deal with me, and I am not the toughest, but I too learned to stand my ground.
That is what happens when you have four older brothers. You learn to get tough. And for the last twenty years, I have tried to learn to be not so tough and a lot nicer. (I hope). However, sometimes the feisty in me just comes out.
Tips and tricks For Easy Cheeseburger Pasta:
- You can use any cheese that you like, just remember that different types of cheese give you different flavors.
- Some people even like to add just a little extra ketchup on the top, but that is up to you and your preference.
- Remember, anything that you put on a cheese burger, can be added to this yummy recipe.
Anyway, we had a fun birthday party and my granddaughter got a little bit spoiled. It is just amazing how fast they grow up. Now it is time to get ready for my daughter’s birthday and who in the world knows what to get a 21 year old.
Since she lives on her own, maybe I will just get her some groceries. If you have any ideas, I am open for suggestions. She loves cars, and since she just got a new one, I am off the hook as far as a car goes. Ha ha. That is funny.
I wouldn’t get my kids a car even if I could afford it. Maybe I will get her a gas card. And of course, I will have to make her favorite dinner!! Enjoy making this easy cheeseburger pasta.
