Macaroni Monday- Comfort Food

This might be the easiest Macaroni Monday recipe ever, so I will spice it up with a few pics of John cooking fresh sardines.  

First, the macaroni!!  We are going super quick, easy, and comforting with Pastina!

While it cooked, I put frozen peas in the steamer basket. 

Topped with lots of butter and Parmesan Cheese?  Perfect!

To go with it, John made sardines.  

He fillets them and removes the head.

Then, he bakes them at 350* until they are done!

Does anyone know if I can use the head and bones in stock?  I thought I could, then, I thought I couldn't because they are too oily... Now I have no idea!  Thoughts?
