“Often we say it, and even more often we think, the simple things are always the best. And I’ll explain in this recipe story, as I have had yet another proof. This concept I always say to my daughter and I try to make him understand mainly with my behavior, that simplicity should be the basis of everything. And yesterday, I realized that perhaps the message is passed. In fact, while painting with her the external facade of the house I saw the infant home away and move toward the small vegetable garden that we face and collect the fresh mint and a lemon and then give it all to Mom. The two have conspired together for a couple of minutes and the little maid returned to his work as a painter aide complete with a professional brush, perhaps even bigger than her, and really want to do. In the evening while taking a shower I felt that with the help of her mother, Marisa my wife, preparing dinner. The surprise was great when entering I found on the table one of my favorite dishes, namely pasta with mint, parmesan cheese with a nice lemon juice. And guess what he told me? I’ll reported verbatim: “Have you seen daddy? I also know how to cook, and as you say, the simple things are the most good. ”
Moved and happy, I ate a hearty pasta dish, and not just to give her satisfaction, but precisely because it is a dish from a great flavor. Procida lemons and mint from the garden, give off a trail of irresistible fragrance. Work hard and in the sun all day have done the rest. Almost, almost the pasta was not enough. But maybe it’s all an excuse. The pasta is pasta and then, prepared by my princesses, is the best thing in the world !!
Preparing very simple and fast that they used my two ladies. Just as well as I do. Evidently they spied me as I was preparing some time. Then I’ll explain.
