Cold Spaghetti

I think it was last Sunday evening and my Mom and I decided that we would eat cereal for dinner. My Mom offered me spaghetti from the day before. I haven’t eaten spaghetti in years because I’ve known for a long time that carbs are not my friend.

I remember making it for young Sean to eat during football season and I would just have meatballs and spaghetti sauce because, again, carbs are NOT my friend! They haven’t been my friend for a very long time!

But when given the opportunity to eat cold spaghetti during this pandemic, I DEFINITELY jumped at it! As I ate the spaghetti, I was immediately reminded of a time when I worked at the credit union and I was pregnant. I was dressed and ready for work and I grabbed a bowl and put spaghetti in it for me to eat it for lunch. It looked so delicious to me so I loaded up my fork and put the really big bite in my mouth. It was delicious! What I did not think about though, however, was that the bite was a little bit too big for me to swallow all of it and some fell right on the top of my belly. I was wearing a white tank top with a button-down shirt over the top of it.

It was too late for me to change for work so I just buttoned one button of my oxford button-down shirt and went to work. I remember that I told and showed a few of my friends at work. I’ve told Sean the story many times and would laugh when that song was on The Wiggles. Sean used to watch The Wiggles when he was young. I had a heckuva time copying the link to share that song here but I figured out a way and you can see this song I heard 1 million times when Sean was young.
