Set aside. Cook the pasta until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water, drizzle with a bit of canola oil so it doesn't stick.

Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.

The Best Party Punch

1 can frozen piña colada concentrate, thawed 1 can frozen orange pineapple juice concentrate, thawed 4 liters of diet lemon-lime soda 1 bag of pebble ice 1 bag of frozen raspberries Directions: Pour the thawed concentrates into your punchbowl and stir. Use one of the empty cans and fill it with water four times and add it to the mixture. Stir. Add your diet soda to the mixture. (You can use regular sugar-filled soda if you want, but I think it gets too sweet and you will also feel guilty when you fill your glass for the sixteenth time. Which you WILL.) Next, add about half your bag of pebble ice. (NOTE: Please do not screw up the order and add the ice before the soda. You will get an ugly foam at the top of your punch bowl.) Add your frozen raspberries to the top. Congratulations! You have just created the Mona Lisa of Punch! Your punch should be a lovely dark yellow at the bottom of your punch bowl, light lemony yellow in middle, almost white on the top, and then bright magenta on the very, very top! So pretty! And then, when you start serving the punch with a ladle, it all mixes together and becomes this dreamy pink color. And then, when you lift the punch bowl to your lips when it is almost gone to swallow the last few drops of punch, it is an even darker pink because the raspberries have really mixed in.
