Pasta making!

We had never tried to make pasta before, and it seemed like a fun adventure. For my thirtieth birthday last week, we attempted butternut squash ravioli! We loved the filling (butternut squash and pecans) but decided that the whole effort to make the giant ravioli probably wasn't worth the three hours it took.


They didn't look pretty, but they tasted amazing!

After the ravioli, we made fettuchini with the leftover dough. It was a lot easier since there were fewer steps (we didn't need to lay out the sheets of pasta, fill them, pile another sheet on top, seal them, and cut them).

We put the fettuchini noodles on our clothes drying rack to harden.

We ate them a few days later. Yum! We also made spinach fettuchini the following week, which was extra tasty. I think I win this month's domestic goddess competition!
