The Purposed Trek

Keep me safe, O God, I've run for dear life to you. I say to God, "Be my Lord!" Without you, nothing makes sense.
 

Bringing Cavatelli to South Africa

I got this random urge last week to make homemade pasta, sauce and meatballs for dinner one night at the Franzen's. So today I decided to embark on something that I have always do for Christmas with my cousins and my Mom, with my Uncle Tony standing over critiquing every roll, cut and grate we do. So after "cutting" for many years, that was my job in the assembly line, I thought I needed to expand my abilities and make the dough, learn to roll as well as run the cut pasta on the back of a cheese grater. And now I have pictures to prove I can do it all by myself.

2 1/2 hours invested
8 cups of flour
2 eggs
430 cavatelli

Awesome meal - Priceless!

I am so impressed. And I thought I was doing good when I made my own homemade tomato sauce the other day!

That looks soooo yummy.. I am so impressed.. you will have to do that again when you are back in the area. I have always wanted to make my own dough and pasta. Never took the time I guess.
