Stop in the name of all which does not suck. ~Butt-head

Few things in life excite my happiness more than the return of my all time favorite offensive cartoon.  Yes, Beavis and Butt-Head are returning on October 27.  

I am also eagerly awaiting Masterpiece Theater's Downton Abbey in December.

This past weekend was filled with Hurricane Irene and her many drops of rain.  It didn't put a damper on my adventures into Cumberland, Maryland's Beer and Wine Festival.

Recipe of the weekend (never attend a beer and wine festival on an empty stomach):

Pasta Primavera Con Basil
1/2 lb. whole wheat pasta (any shape)
caramelized zucchini/yellow squash
1/2 lb. fresh tomatoes
1/4 cup basil

Cook pasta according to package directions.  Combine next three ingredients and enjoy!

per 1 cup serving 230 Calories, 7 g protein, 8 g fiber.

It was raining in the background (I did hum the Chili Pepper's song  Underneath The Bridge).
