I just posted that I'm taking dinner to our neighbors after an unexpected death in the family today. I have a feeling they would really love mac 'n cheese... along with a giant salad.
So if you have a recipe you've made and love, please share it if you can. thanks!

I made this last night for my girlies birthday dinner.
1.5 lbs pasta 3 tbsp butter 3 tbsp flour 2 cups heavy whipping cream 1 cup light whipping cream (really any combination of whipping cream, that's just what I had on hand) 1.5 cups shredded fontina cheese 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar (with the cheeses, it's best to buy a block and shred yourself vs the already shredded in the bags)
Boil pasta until cooked, drain well. In a stock pot, melt butter and then add flour. Let cook for just a minute or so. Gently whisk in all the cream over med heat. Stir frequently until mixture becomes thick and bubbly. Slowly add in all the shredded cheese and whisk until smooth. Add your pasta in and stir to coat. I find it best to use pasta with "lines" on it whether it be elbows or cavatappi. Oh and I add salt & pepper to taste.
