freeze,...

"I wish I could freeze this space in time, I wish I could feel ...for you inside,this is my moment, this is my precious moment with you".PERFECT MOMENT by Martin McCuthcheon
.I miss you even though you've hurt me a lot, even though you broke me into pieces, and didnt know how to start.
I may not be perfect, nor as special as you think, but I present myself to you, as a woman, a confidant, a backbone for your decisions.
Im here always even though Im bleeding profusely to death, calling your mercy to accept me back again.
Im waiting , still hoping that you'll soon come to your senses and realize what you've done to me

baby angel...Mommy loves you so much...always remember

Mommy,why are you thinking of getting rid of me? I love you already,cant you feel and see? I already have ten little fingers and toes, two eyes,a mouth and a little nose. I kick,I move,I wish I could say, Mommy,please dont throw me away. Give me a chance to live and see what I can become, I might ,someday,be president, If,God's Will,this can be done. I may be tall or short,A girl or a boy, Please mommy,love me and please dont listen to them that tell you to destroy. I was sent By God above to give you strength and love, I belong to Jesus,the Lord and Savior up above. He only loaned me to you,I belong to Him and He sent me to you, I beg you to think again mommy,think about what He will do, You will stand before God if you take my life and don't repent of this sin, I am very special,on me you can depend. I will grow up someday and I'll take care of you when you get old, You will love me when you see me,more precious than pure gold. Give me a chance,mommy,this I plead, I will be all that you ever need. You will regret it if you make this choice in haste, Mommy,oh mommy,please wait and see my face. I know I can make you love me if you just give me a chance, I will make you happy enough to laugh,sing and dance. I ask you again,one more time before you throw me away, Please dont do this mommy,please let me stay.


----baby angel, mommy loves you so much...I'm so sorry...Daddy loves mommy too, It's just that....

---Baby don't get angry with Daddy if you grow up...

loving pasta.....yum yum...

the ultimate lasagna


Ingredients

  • 2 pound dried lasagna noodles
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 pound ground Italian sausage
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 3 carrots, chopped
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped oregano leaves
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups red wine
  • 2 (28-ounce) cans tomatoes (recommended: San Marzano)
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 quarts ricotta cheese, (2 containers)
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pound mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • Grated Parmesan and mozzarella, for topping

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Cook the lasagna noodles in plenty of boiling salted water until pliable and barely tender, about 10 minutes. Stir with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking. Drain the noodles thoroughly and coat with olive oil to keep them moist and easy to work with.

Coat a large skillet with olive oil, add beef and sausage and brown until no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. In a food processor, combine the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, basil, parsley, an oregano. Process until pureed, add to the pan with the ground meat and stir to combine. Stir in the flour. Add the wine and cook until it has reduced by half. Stir in the tomatoes and add the heavy cream and the cinnamon.

In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta and the parmesan. Stir in the eggs and season with salt and pepper.

To assemble the lasagna: Coat the bottom of a deep 13 by 9-inch pan with olive oil. Arrange 4 noodles lengthwise in a slightly overlapping layer on the sauce. Then, line each end of the pan with a lasagna noodle. This forms a collar that holds in the corners. Dollop 1/2 of the ricotta mixture over the pasta, spread to the edges with a spatula. Spread 1/2 of the meat mixture over the ricotta. Sprinkle 1/2 of the mozzarella on top of the ricotta. Top with a ladle full of sauce, spread evenly. Repeat with the next layer of noodles, ricotta, sauce, and cheeses. Top last layer with noodles, sauce, shredded mozzarella and Parmesan. Tap the pan to force out air bubbles. Bake for 1 hour. Remove from oven. Let lasagna rest for 30 minutes so the noodles will settle and cut easily. Cut into 2-inch squares and serve.
