A favorite blogger writes: "What has happened to all the women who are done with child-rearing? Young voices permeate the blogosphere." What do sixty-something women do with their lives, especially if they do not have full-time jobs? We're here to find that out.

A See-again Dinner for One
Last night's dinner
Tonight's dinner
Tortellini for One:
Cook big handful of dried (or any kind) tortellini in boiling salted water. Takes about 5 minutes. When done, drain, leaving a couple of spoonfuls of the pasta water in the pot. Throw some spinach leaves into pot (preferably the baby kind, but tear up if they are big ones), cover the pan, and wilt for a minute over low heat. Put the tortellini back in the pot, add some fresh chopped up tomato, salt and pepper, and grate some fresh parmesan over the top. Done!
I'm sixty-five. I still live in the same suburban NJ house where I raised my three daughters. They wonder what I do all day. Now they will be able to find out, and so will I.

This looks great! I also like to use this kind of tortellini (and the cheese-filled kind). It seems to be popular with everyone around here...
Sounds pretty easy and delicious! And it looks very pretty too.
You are like me -- once you fix on a good meal for one it becomes THE meal, returned to again and again.
Such good colors on that plate (I am color obsessed these days!)...
