Mushroom and Meatball Pasta

Mushroom and Meatball Pasta

I’m just going to come right out and say it: I am so in love with my husband. He is my best friend and I love him more and more each day. I could go on and on listing all of the reasons why I love him but that might take me days and I don’t want to get too sappy and bore you to tears.

I will say this. One of the reasons why I love him, and like I said before…there are many, is that he is incredibly supportive. He always knows how to make me happy and, being the easy-going person that he is, acts as my rock…always trying to keep me grounded, calm, cool and collected.

I feel as though we have a very balanced life, especially when it comes to our home. As you all know, I love to bake and cook (as if that’s not obvious). With baking and cooking comes a messy kitchen since, according to him, I tend to use every bowl, utensil, pot and tray whenever I prepare meals. When I’m done baking or cooking, it seriously looks like a tornado went through our kitchen. One minute the kitchen is spotless…the next minute the bowls are piled high and, I must admit, it actually scares me a little. That’s when my husband steps in to do the dirty work. Since I spend so much time developing, creating and preparing meals, he forces me out of the kitchen so that he can tackle my mess.

Except for last night. Last night, knowing that I wasn’t feeling well, he picked up a few items at the grocery store and got to work creating his own little mess in the kitchen as he prepared his famous and delicious dish: Mushroom and Meatball Pasta. That’s another thing I love about him. He spoils me with his simple acts of kindness.

  1. Aww…sounds like your hubby is a keeper! ;-) I love when my hubby does those sweet little things that make me fall in love with him more each day!

  2. OK, the sweet husband stuff is making me gag a bit…but then I'm the cynical divorcee whose husband was, well, not so nice. So let's just say it's jealousy rearing it's ugly head and once I acknowledge that…tell you how delightful it is to actually hear someone expound on their good mate!

    I would marry again if what you share here was a given…dish cleanup. Heaven…and a great dish to eat to boot? You are a lucky woman!
