The pre-paid cremation is, in all truth, a single-pay, single purpose
life insurance policy. The longer I span between purchase and use the
better the insuror does on my premium.

      Title: Death By Garlic *
 Categories: Pasta, Cheese, Chilies
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
    1/2 c  Olive oil
     10 cl Minced garlic
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Crushed red pepper flakes
      3 tb Chopped fresh parsley
      1 lb Penne pasta
    1/3 c  Grated Romano cheese
 
  * The title is facetious. A mere 10 cloves of garlic is
  not enough to "do in" any but the very feeblest of the
  vampire group."  UDD
  
  I added one can of Italian tomatoes and chicken sausage
  that had basil in it.
  
  Cook pasta according to directions. In a pan slowly brown
  garlic in oil (do not let burn!). Add salt, pepper and
  parsley. Remove from heat. Toss Penne with garlic mixture
  and romano cheese. Serve hot.
  
  Serves 4 generously.
