Love on a plate - Rigatoni with mushrooms and sausage

This recipe was inspired by my sister-in-laws mushroom appetizer dish that she got from Mario Batali's recipe. I made it for my family on Valentine's Day so it was love in a dish. It was everything I thought it would be - creamy, cheesy, mushroomy.

Oven to 375
2 cups dry rigatoni cooked according to package
1 box mushrooms - diced
4 sage leaves finely chopped
1/2 lb Italian sausage
1 T olive oil
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 tsp thyme
1 garlic clove smashed
1/2 cup chicken or beef broth
1/2 cup sherry or white wine
1 pat butter
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup parmasean cheese

1. Brown sausage
2. Add mushrooms, onions, garlic and cook until soft
3. Add broth, wine, thyme and cook until liquid has reduced by 1/2
4. Add rigatoni, butter and add sour cream when butter is melted and combined
5. Sprinkle with cheese and bake in oven x 25-30 minutes at 375

Lemon Meringue Pie

Ok, this is the same recipe as for the lime pie but with lemon juice from 3 lemons and I did more curly cues with my butter knife on this one. Thus, the lovelier picture is here. And I was unable to see my graham cracker crust in my jumble of a pantry (yes I worked on it this weekend) and used a frozen regular pie crust in the back of my freezer. I put 2 drops of yellow food coloring in the filling to make it more sunny. This one turned out so TASTY - the perfect lemon pie.
