Creamy Pasta Salad

in food •  3 days ago

    Hello 😊

    2 more days and I will be at Hollywood Theater in Van City. So cannot wait 😍 I mentioned before that I got 4 tickets to see Tony Ann - pianist from Canada residing in US now (he played with and co-written 2 singles for The Chainsmokers), whom I fell in love with in 2021 (I believe). I was always hoping someday he would throw a concert, one that I could see myself and my hope was answered a couple of months back, when he started his world tour 😊 I right away hit buy concert tickets, and buy air tickets too, forgetting I was in talk of surgery and whatnot 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Happy all dates fell in my favor tho, so yep, cannot wait 😊 Got the hotel booked and paid a couple of days ago. Hollywood Theater, here I come 😍😊😍😊😍

    My youngest doesn't know that am kidnapping him from school tho. I had to tell my oldest that he will be away from school next week (as he was so worried of missing school, so I had to tell him why). I wanted them to go to the concert with me as a surprise (as we didn't get to go nowhere during Summer break). I hope this going away for a bit before mommy's big day would be a nice little distraction for everyone 😊

    Anyhoo!

    Today's dish is my mother's in law cooking. A nice vegetarian meal 😊
