Wise words at the end
When in 2019 at the first possible opportunity you break your New Year's Resolution (I will stop smoking, I will exercise, I won‘t use sugar, I will stop drinking alcohol, or I will never again fall in love with a "bad" man), when you have a cigarette and a glass and hug the "wrong" man, remember:
„Regret nothing.“ - Edith Piaf
And what if carbohydrates win over you again, even though you gave them up at the end of 2018? In that case, get a plateful and trust that pasta can be a recipe for beauty!
„Symmetrical features or the perfect proportions do not make anyone beautiful...You must have a spark, a fire and a certain self-confidence...Everything you see I owe to spaghetti.“ - Sophia Loren.
