Joys of cooking

Have you ever wondered about the natural order of things applying to inordinate objects?

Well, I was just cooking up some herb chicken tortelliini and all the pasta pieces lined themselves up along the perimeter of the pot with one floater sitting in the middle of the circle. I watched the pasta for a while and noticed that the loner was actually looking for a spot in the line by bouncing into other pieces and then going back to the center. It was almost like a game of Red Rover.
My observation was interrupted while I went to get a bowl and prepared the pasta sauce for my meal. When I came back the lonely little pasta had found a place in the line and all the tortellini were facing up, almost telling me that they were ready to eat. So, I took my fork and starting eating, wondering which one of these tasty little morsels had been the loner who found his place in the line and now in my stomach.
Yum!
