What's for dinner?

yup, I usually take them into work the next day for lunch.

Duke, get a hand-crank pasta machine, they're like $20, and it's super easy to do, just takes some time, but it's so worth it. It dries pretty well, so you can keep it for a few meals.

$20? Seriously? Damn. I'm so there.
 
I would however, like the kitchenaid one, but they're like $100, and my hand-crank one comes from my wife's italian grandmother, so i just roll with it.

Damn, I gotta make some ravioli soon...

Ape got herself one for xmas. Its fucking awesome.
 
I'll make you some fresh pasta sometime, Duke.

If you like cooking/baking a kitchenaid mixer is a must. :). The pasta attachments are pricey, but it runs on a motor so you don't have to crank. I'd say get a crank one first (amazon sells them) and see if you like the whole concept.

Pasta is only three ingredients that everyone has; Flour, eggs and salt. So it's great for when you feel like there is nothing to eat in the pantry.

I just got a kitchenaid food processor for christmas, and it's fucking awesome powerful. If you guys are in the market for a new one soon, I'd strongly recommend it. I've had the stand mixer for a few years now and it's probably my fave thing in the whole kitchen...

but yeah, fresh pasta is soooo good. I haven't made any in probably 6 months now, gotta fix that.

My pasta is only one ingredient, dried pasta in bag in cupboard. I always have at least one bag in there too.

That's next on the agenda. I didn't realize how easy it is so I went with a basic recipe.
 
I do love me some spinach linguine. I figure if I can make a woman a good dinner with some home made pasta, I'm in.
