When I come home and step inside, I can kick off my shoes, take a deep breath and relax. My home is my sanctuary and I want it to be a happy place, a restful place and there is no room for negative thoughts. I found this photo of an ornate door on Facebook and instantly related to its message. I want positive things, and that is all that I allow in my home.
What is the point of arguing with people online? I don’t think many people will be swayed by expressing your own point of view on subjects. They are too busy defending their own points of view and don’t really have a stake in the outcome of the argument other than the self satisfaction of wearing you down.
I don’t like to argue with people anyway. Sometimes a healthy debate can be enlightening, but most people don’t have the self control and discipline to debate. They just resort to name calling and bullying tactics.
My mom is not Italian but she has a special secret family recipe for spaghetti sauce. It is very complicated and takes 2 – 3 hours to prepare it. I love her spaghetti sauce, but for most nights when I want to have spaghetti for dinner I jut open a jar of Prego spaghetti sauce.
I’ve tried a lot of different sauces, including Ragu, Newman’s Own and Bertolli. I have even tried the generic store brands. I just always seem to gravitate back to the Prego sauce and I dislike the Ragu so much that I would rather eat noodles with just olive oil and parmesan cheese than to ruin good pasta with Ragu sauce on it. There is something about the Ragu taste that reminds me of the canned chef Boyardi raviloli and beefaroni that you feed children. I can’t stand the taste of those!
