She took her children to school and went back home.  While sitting in the dining room, looking at her window, she saw a guitar and played it. As the couple stays at home while their children are at school, they had a so-called Spaghetti Day because it was a tiring day and she cannot cook anything for their dinner. They have no choice but to have spaghetti because the mom can cook it in about 10 minutes.
