Domestic Diva

On Saturday I pulled out the pasta maker that I got for my birthday back in February, called some friends over and proceeded to spend the afternoon trying to figure out. We used the recipe from the Joy of Cooking, which was complicated and messy, then proceeded to YouTube Jamie Oliver and found the 3 minute pasta making video. All in all, it was messy, fun and yummy!
The following is my attempt at food blogging!

The ingredients


The Bear and G. Mango (aka Super Nanny)


T-Mouse


The first batch


Drying on the rack...very important to keep the shape when cooking (I thought!)


G. Mango's roasted squash for stuffed pasta


Sauce with fresh basil and oregano from the garden. Unfortunately the sauce was store bought. Perhaps this summer we'll try canning our own!


The Feast --Spinach linguine, White linguine and Roasted Garlic and Squash stuffed pasta with Fine Herb sauce and the most important part...friends!
