Heaven in my mouth!

I was telling my baby brother about this fabulous recipe I have. I made this Carbonara for dinner last night. It is so yummy and easy to make. Since I had to track it down for him, I decided that all my friends should share in my good fortune, so I am posting it for your enjoyment today. Or tomorrow, or whenever you manage ro run to the store and stock up on bacon.

I must thank my friend Jessica for this recipe. She passed it on to me and I adore it. I love it! I would totally marry it! It brings me such joy and happiness. And then I eat waaaay too much of it and have a tummy ache, and still, I am happy. Currently there are leftovers in my fridge, calling my name, but I have already overindulged this evening.

Dang it. Now I am thinking about it and I may have to eat the leftovers anyway.

Thank you Jessica, I will always remember you because of this recipe and I shall think fond thoughts of you as I gorge myself on this fantastically delicious food.
