Spaghetti Pie

Recently I have been on a “tour de Klindt Family Recipes” so that I can 1. Indulge myself a bit and 2. Get all the recipes written and photographed to share with all of you!  This one was introduced to our family when my little brother was born (if I am remembering the story correctly).  A friend of my mom’s dropped off a frozen casserole of spaghetti pie to my parents to help them out a little bit when our family expanded to 3 kids (outnumbering our parents).

Well hello friends!  Did you miss me?  I missed writing (and cooking).  Sorry I have been a bit MIA – life has been a tad busy lately.  In short: BIG presentation, wedding dress shopping, Susan visiting, Nielsen friends happy hour, and trip to Louisville, OH for another round of wedding dress shopping and tastings.  Such a whirlwind few weeks and I am exhausted, but had so much fun and have a great report card:

Hello friends!  Sorry about the delay in posting…it has been a fun, relaxing, exciting, and even a little nerve racking few weeks over the holidays.  I have been thinking a lot about family recently, what it means, who it includes, past memories and future ones to come.  You will understand why when I explain.  First, my big sister, Ann, and her boyfriend (well, now fiancé) got engaged!!  Something that has been in the works for a long time, but has finally happened.  I couldn’t be more excited for them and proud that my sister found a such a great guy (not only to her but to our family as well: ER visits, resume writing, negotiating skills, lawn rototilling, chandelier hanging, etc to just name a few things he has done over the years with our family).   Congrats and cheers to you both!!  I can’t wait for the year of wedding planning to come.
