Making a dinner two weeks in a row is highly rare in the Schultz residence. I actually think this might be the first time ever! That means it is something special, indeed. This tomato cream sauce is kind of a necessary part of any pasta lifestyle. David and I ate this tortellini watching game three of the world series and it was so cozy and delightful. He has really raved about it REPEATEDLY ever since and requested it again only three days later.
