My Kitchen Adventures (with my sister): Episode 3 - Alphabet Pasta

A is for Alphabet, P is for pasta! Yes, Pasta!  The main dish for our dinner.  The foods above made up our humbling dinner which was good for some dieting that I needed though.  My sister planned for this dinner and she was the chief cook that night too.   We named this dish as A-B-C PASTA ALA MAY (f.y.i - May is my sister's nickname).  The main ingredient:  The pack of pasta that I bought from Hong Kong but was actually made in Italy.
