• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

A quick and easy pasta for a snowy night

Stir it all together and the mozz will become deliciously stringy.

Man you’ve inspired me. This is very similar to the summer pasta dish I make but this is so much better. Had it once at this Italian immigrant restaurant in those rhode island and I’ve tried my best to mimic it, but in just a suburban southern vanilla culture Publix way. I’m going to go to Coco’s (the best italian market in Nashville) and try and get real ingredients and do this right.

Plus your from the place that had the greatest christkindle market ever and I hate it shut down! But I fell like I owe you the respect of doing it the right way, lol. Here’s my sad attempt relative to yours. I never thought of wine. I was making a garlic infused olive oil and taking a half cup of the pasta water and reducing it down with the olive oil. I also add sausage in little pieces. I love it and the taste but this will only be better! Try not to make too much fun, I don’t really know what I’m doing.

You should check out the pics of Coco’s market, looked pretty good

Looks great. Cut those chunks of mozz up and stir them in so they melt. That stringy cheese adds a ton to the pasta.
