It’s so great to have Wally home again! He’s starting to act like his normal self. He’s such a sweetheart, all of the people at the vets office just love him, and were happy to see him well again. He has such a lovable personality. Poor thing does not like to take his medicines, but he is very forgiving. We leave for Florida tomorrow morning, and we have a friend that will be coming to feed them and give Wally his meds twice a day. I hate that we’re leaving when he has been sick, but I’m happy that he is getting better. It’s nice to have him sleeping on my legs again, no matter how uncomfortable they might get. 🙂
This recipe comes from failures. After a failed attempt of making ravioli, and another failed attempt at making calzones, I had some leftover marinara sauce. After eating a bunch of it, I thought “well, this turned out pretty darn good!”
Use this for pizzas, spaghetti, dipping sauce, or whatever you’d like!
