Alfredo Sauce

I am of the opinion it is possible to tell how I feel based on what I'm cooking. Today, I was completely murdered by my calc quiz, so I came home for comfort food. I made alfredo sauce and some cookies (though these were from a package, don't judge me).

This was good, but a little too creamy and not enough cheesy for me. So, depending on your tastes, you might like it more than I did.

Ingredients:
8 oz cream cheese
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
1 cup half and half
1/2 cup butter
1 tsp garlic powder
pepper, to taste

Melt the butter over high heat in a medium sauce pan.

When it's mostly melted, turn it down and add the cream cheese. Break it up with your spoon; it allows it to melt easier.

When it's a smooth creamy mixture, add the half and half, parmesan cheese, and garlic powder. Stir thoroughly and add the pepper. Allow to simmer and mix; when it's combined, take it off the heat to thicken up, stirring every time you think about it.

Pour it onto hot noodles, topping with a bit more pepper. Serve and eat! Makes enough for two generous portions of pasta (about the size in the picture).

While I was cooking this, I listened to my one of favorite musicals, Starship, and there's this song, Kick It Up A Notch (about 5 minutes in and in Act 1 Part 10, I really love Status Quo, but that's beside the point), sung by Dylan Saunders primarily. First off, god I love his voice. Secondly, there's this part that goes "It's a big, big universe/So many dimensions and unanswered questions"; as it continues, I'm always like, "Yeah, go Bug! Achieve your dreams! I can, too!"

That had no purpose; I just thought I'd share with you the sorts of things that inspire me.

Keep stirring, loves!
