LOST

So......did anyone watch the season finale last night...it was wicked!!!! (Jessica - I know you haven't watched it yet, so no spoilers here!!!!)

And a complete sidenote. I've decided to read the Harry Potter books again - start to finish. I'm not sure why, I'm just really enjoying them more this time around. I just started the Half Blood Prince, and am curious to see what part that guy who just got stabbed in London played. Grim, I know, but I have no idea what his part was in the movie. It's horrible that it happened. And no, I started reading all the books before that thing happened. Just summer reading!

Another thing I'm trying is whole wheat pasta. I tried it a few years ago and thought it was repulsive, it was like eating the box it came in! So I started on that whole wheat blend... the spiral pasta wasn't too bad. Last night I put the penne in this Italian Sausage soup (which is amazing, if I do say so myself) and it was a little cardboardy, but got better the longer it sat. I'm an al dente girl, but this stuff is better a bit overcooked - weird. Generally I eat all things whole grain, but man, I'm resistant to pasta.

OK - sidenotes over....I hope we can discuss the Lost finale soon!!!

I really like the Barilla whole wheat pasta. I use the angel hair becaue it's super thin so you can't tell as much. It's not quite as soft, but because it's thin it hides the wheat much better. My family has no idea they are eating healthy pasta! i'm tricky like that!

I so need to get back into LOST. I watched the first season and half of the second. I'm renting the seasons this summer to catch up.

We can talk about LOST now. :-) I have seen it, and of course, the world revolves around me. LOL

I like whole wheat pasta...I just cook it a little longer than white pasta. I pretty much only eat whole wheat or veggie. It's all about what you put on the pasta.

Is it still "healthy" if it's covered in creamy sauce or cheese? Or olive oil pesto sauce?
