Kitchen Pasta Maker Coming to a Kitchen Near Me Soon

My kitchen of course.  After many hours, I finally decided on what I wanted for a starter kitchen pasta maker.  It took some work, too, believe me...but I finally landed on a nice little start-up kit that I put together myself (I think ;) ).

Here's what will be arriving, courtesy of Amazon, in a matter of a week or so....

Can't wait for it to get here!  Of course, I'm sure that it'll take some trial and error, but I'm looking forward to my first-ever fresh homemade pasta.  And I can't wait for the heifer to calve and to be making fresh cheese and fresh cheese ravioli with it - yum! And to think of the the combos creatable once the fresh garden veggies get growing.....*sigh....

Pasta, Pasta, Pasta!


Pasta, Pasta, Pasta!

...It's what's on my brain today.  I already love making my own homemade pasta sauce (and am a little sad to be down to only 2 jars left from last year's garden :[ ).  I always think when I use it, though, that it's kind of a shame to be pouring it over that crap from a cardboard box.  So my latest craze is to make my own pasta!  Yes, I want to become a kitchen pasta maker, too, and so that's where I've been spending my "spare" time these last couple of rainy days.  Hey - with those backyard chickens of mine producing more than a baker's dozen a day, I've got to use all those eggs somehow!!
