Sunday arrives softly — the kind of day meant for slowing down, savoring the season, and leaning into easy comforts.

Breakfast will begin with scrambled eggs and Trader Joe’s sliced rosemary ham, a simple start with plenty of flavor. There’s something satisfying about a skillet breakfast that doesn’t ask much — just a bit of butter and a quiet morning.

Dinner will carry that same ease: Trader Joe’s Parmesan Butter Pappardelle, rich and velvety, served alongside warm sourdough bread and a glass of Villa Alena Moscato D’Asti. It will be the kind of meal that feels like a little celebration — uncomplicated, cozy, and just a touch indulgent.

For snacks, there will be Trader Joe’s Fall Harvest Salsa, Pimento Cheese Dip, and Fall Leaf Corn Tortilla Chips — the perfect mix of sweet, savory, and seasonal.

Cooking Tip: Authentic Alfredo relies on simplicity — butter, Parmigiano Reggiano, and a little pasta water. The secret is in the emulsion: toss the hot pasta with butter first, then gradually add finely grated cheese and splashes of hot pasta water until it becomes silky and smooth.

Kitchen Tool: A rubber spatula will come in handy — gentle enough for scrambled eggs, flexible enough for tossing warm pasta without breaking it apart.

It is one of those Sundays that reminds me — comfort doesn’t need to be complicated; it just needs to be savored.
