Favorite Food
My favorite food is chicken fettuccini pasta. I prefer this dish because of the great taste. It consists of a magnificent sauce, tender chicken, and mixed vegetables. This blend of ingredients contributes the flavor, texture, and appearances of the pasta. Just because the sauce isnââ¬â¢t an attractive color, which is an dull white with drops of grey from mushrooms and specks of green from the broccoli . The creamy fettuccini sauce itself is so tantalizing itââ¬â¢s truly what I call the cream of the crop. Added to the sauce is a mixture of mozzarella, ricotta, and provolone cheese along with sauteed mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes. As I twirl the fork of noodles against the spoon, the expectation of silky smooth noodles gliding down my throat salivates the glands on my tongue. While eating such a well desired meal itââ¬â¢s easy to forget my manners, I may slurp the noodles so fast that the sauce may end up on my face. I do use napkins but remember Iââ¬â¢m lost into my dream world. The chicken is a substantial filling for pasta. My philosophy is no meal is complete without a thick savory meat. There are many ways to cook chicken to add into fettuccini pasta. My favorite is Cajun deep fried chicken breast thatââ¬â¢s tender and juicy, cut into thin strips. It has a crunchy golden brown spicy flavored batter. I prefer my chicken cooked to be crispy on the outside, yet not too dry so that the inner part will be stringy in the inside (kind of like pulled meat) therefore; itââ¬â¢s like pulling layers away from the inside of the chicken breast. A whiff of the welled seasoned chicken is finger licking good! Itââ¬â¢s then sprinkled with grated parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, while covered in steamy sauce itââ¬â¢s so invigorating. Vegetables help completes pasta with its healthy nutritious. It includes steamed broccoli, sundried tomatoes, mushrooms, with a hint of garlic; it is a tasty way to live healthy. Broccoli accents the color scheme throughout the meal, rather its laying near a noodle itself or in between a gap in my teeth. The green small crunchy tree- like shaped vegetable doesnââ¬â¢t make me feel guilty about my favorite meal because every bite is filled with specks of broccoli so the health factor is definitely included. I know Iââ¬â¢m getting my proper amount of vegetables. The succulent tan chewy mushrooms provides an excellent source of potassium, also an interesting fact (mushrooms helps with migraine headaches. ) The sundried tomatoes are sparingly sprinkled throughout the dish because the flavor is quite intense, concentrated and slightly salty so a little goes along way. Many vegetables give pasta the picture perfect look. When eating this incredible tasting pasta I understand what it takes to make food so inviting. It has many different yet, incredible savory sauces and different ways of being crafted it can easily be adapted in diverse culture which makes pasta that more interesting. The pasta dish has come a long way from its original creation in the 18th century with its ingredients that consisted of only egg , flour, cheese, and cream; however, it has evolved into a food of art that has my taste buds more in-tact. Its roman herbs and spices give me a feeling of warmth and cheerfulness at the time of eating. Food of this stature should be a crime given my opinion because of the texture and taste only keeps me coming back for more. This pasta comes second to none; itââ¬â¢s my choice over all when it comes to my favorite supper.

Donny learns from his lawyer, Jim Nance, that he owes $43,000 to the IRS in back-taxes and will be imprisoned for three years if he doesn't repay the money by the end of the weekend. He visits TV producer Randall Morgan, who had produced shows for Donny d uring his brief period of celebrity, and Morgan offers him $50,000 if he can organize a reunion with Han and Mary McGarricle at the women's prison. Donny arrives at Cape Cod to try to convince Todd to participate.Because he had previously told people that his parents had died, Todd introduces Donny as an old friend; Donny elaborates with a heroic backstory and, despite his extremely crude behavior, quickly becomes well-liked by the other guests, at the expense of Todd's popularity. Donny tries to convince Todd to come to the women's prison to see his mother, without revealing that it is for a tv show, but Todd refuses. Todd fights constantly with Donny about his father's immaturity, both now and during his childhood. Donny admitted he was wrong for his actions and should've stopped him, but he didn't know how to be a father. Donny joins Todd and his friends at Todd's bachelor party, a relaxing day at a spa. However, Donny offends the employees and guests and eventually convinces the wedding party to attend a strip club where Todd bonds with Brie.

Later, Donny discovers Jamie having sex with her brother. She pays Donny the money he needs in order to keep him quiet. After receiving a conciliatory present from Todd, Donny decides that he has to stop the wedding.At the ceremony he reveals himself to be Todd's father and rips up Jamie's check, and forces her to admit her infidelity to Todd. A disgusted Todd breaks up with Jamie and quits his job, acknowledging Donny as his father and even taking back his birth name of Han Solo Berger. The following day at the strip club, Han reveals that he is dating Brie.
