Fig, Bleu Cheese, & Prosciutto Flatbread

Real life: I look better with a little tan, it's true. But let's be clear, I don't go tanning. I've never been in a tanning bed, and I wear sunscreen semi-religiously. Instead, I've started using a little self-tanner lotion again. Nothing cray-cray because I don't want to look like the tanning mom. Although I'm not sure that's possible with just self-tanner. I just don't want to give myself wrinkles, y'all!

Real life: I feel better when I've eaten flatbread with figs, bleu cheese, and prosciutto. With a balsamic reduction. Wait...is it bleu or blue? I'm feeling fancy, let's say bleu. It's lovely for dinner and would make a delightful appetizer.

Cream Sauce? Check.

Well I had a most fun Friday!  My dear friend, Kaitlin, won tickets to the Rascal Flatts concert in Charlotte and invited little ol' me to go with her.  I have a bajillion pictures that I took at the show of Sara Evans and Rascal Flatts, but I have yet to go through them and edit; so they'll have to wait.

I do, however, have a sweet little pasta dish I made the same night as the pineapple upside-down cake.  It's fairly simple and mostly a one pot meal (except for the noodles that are boiled separately of course).  The point is, it doesn't have a million different components that all need separate pans.

I'm a sucker for pasta in a silky cream sauce.  I don't like it to be gunky and the noodles all stuck together.  I also don't mind if prosciutto and leeks are involved.

The finished product is salty and creamy, otherwise known as great comfort food.
