This pasta is delish, easy and quick to make, which means is perfect for me since recently my life has been HECTIC!
I’ve had so many things to do at the office and outside that I just wanna cry! Let me cry please!
Tho most people keep telling me that “busy is good”, and I do know myself that all the things that are happening in my life right now are wonderful, I’m still very much looking forward to get some vacation time over the Christmas holidays!
