I'd say melt the garlic butter, maybe a tablespoon or so per serving of pasta, then throw in a splash of the wine. Mix in the pasta, drizzle a tiny bit of the balsamic over the top. (Putting in any veggies or anything? Asparagus and/or white beans seem like they'd be good with that.)
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The kids are getting so big! Noah's bath pictures really drive that home.

Afraid I have no fresh veggies or clams to add, it's pretty much tortelini and those sauce ingredients with parmesan to sprinkle afterwards. I've seen a cooking show that made sauce out of those 3 ingredients (plus crushed pecans), browned it in a pan, and dumped the cooked pasta in to stir. But I don't recall what proportion was used.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
DH and I just decided we're giving up meat for Lent. We're going to follow the tradition that allows you to break your Lenten fast on Sundays, so it's not going to be a month and a half with no meat at all. And since it was originally DH's idea and he's coming to it from a Catholic background, fish is allowed. But I don't like fish very much, so for me that's part of the sacrifice, and I'll only be eating it once or twice a week when he cooks it for dinner.
It's a big change from my usual Lenten sacrifices, which tend to be things like "no swearing," which lasts until the first time someone cuts me off in traffic, or "no buying books," which given the size of my to-be-read pile and my library hold list isn't a hardship unless a favorite author happens to have a new release in that range. But I'm looking forward to it as a challenge and a way of forcing myself to cook and eat more mindfully.
Thing is, I'm discovering my cookbook collection isn't exactly vegetarian-friendly...
ETA saw the video this morning--definitely a wow.

Okay, I couldn't get that Obama link to work - would somebody mind describing it for me?
Thanks!
