I got the pasta cooking then made the sauce and Travis cooked the chicken up on the BBQ. It was done super quick and we were eating dinner in no time.
In the end Travis and the kids loved it. So did Travis' sister, who was over to visit that night. Me, however, I didn't love it. I liked it, and thought it was okay, but I just didn't love it like I thought I would considering I was about to lick the screen when I was over at Lil' Luna's looking at the picture!
