I don't care about Michael Phelps! Give me back my gymnasts! I think I'm the one person who, while I think it's great how well he's doing, I want to watch the men's gymnastics.

And speaking of the Olympics, is it just me, or does anyone else find the McDonald's commericals where the Olympians are promoting the new chicken sandwich weird and disconcerting?

And speaking of food, I cooked again tonight. If I keep this up, it just might turn into a habit. :-P Tonight's recipe turned out much better than the casserole I made.

PASTA PEAS

INGREDIENTS
1 pound elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 onions, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 cups water
1 (15 ounce) can peas
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.

While pasta water is boiling, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onions in oil until tender. Stir in salt, pepper, tomato sauce, water and peas. Reduce heat and simmer until pasta is done.

Stir cooked pasta into tomato mixture. Increase heat and bring to a boil briefly. Remove from heat, stir in cheese, cover and let rest 10 minutes.

Serves 6.

As big a fan as I am of Michael Phelps('s body), I really wish they'd stop going away from the gymnastics.

I'm very with you about the chicken sandwich ad, but I love the Coke ad where they're putting medals on Olympians and Special Olympians in a big montage all together. That makes me wish I drank Coke.

I love the Coke ad too (and I hardly drink Coke). :-D

I totally agree re the McD chicken sandwich commercial. It's weird. Not to mention, I rather doubt these atheletes eat fast food very often.
