Homemade Food Served By The Hands That Made It
Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010Baby Garden
Monday, May 17th, 2010I’m super jealous of my sister’s creativity.
For Mother’s Day, my sister Erin turned a vintage baby carriage into a planter. She decoupaged the outside with images of nature and filled the inside with soil, some flowers and a little ceramic watering stake shaped as a mushroom.
Cute!!
Pasta making!
Saturday, May 8th, 2010For a few years I had been slaving over a make-shift rolling pin (mason jar full of water) to get my pasta dough thin enough. For anyone without a pasta maker, you know how tedious this can be. Last year though, I was fortunate enough to be gifted a beautiful new pasta maker from fellow Crow, Riane. Since then I have been knocking out raviolis, lasagna, and linguine like it’s going out of style. Check out the process!
Once the pasta is all rolled out, you can cut it up however you’d like. I opted to stuff raviolis with ricotta, spinach and parm. Just a few minutes in boiling water and it’s done!
A Crow will never let good food go to waste-the next morning I used the leftover ravioli stuffing to make an omelet. I topped mine with fresh chives and Sriracha sauce. Yum!
