Not what I had planned

Somebody might have spaced on taking out the halibut to thaw for Sunday dinner. And somebody might have tried to waterbath it, but it was still hard as a rock as the dinner hour approached. So somebody had to come up with a Plan B, and somebody thanked her lucky stars yet again for pasta, that wonderful versatile food - a quick Alfredo sauce, a little Prosciutto, a little fresh basil and a salad on the side, and voila. This was not what I had planned, but it was not a bad alternative at all.
