I STEPS ON UR MANUSKRIP!

I know you think otherwise, but I really do not care about Oscar Pistorius.

The Godfather of Gangsta Rap: Stagolee

Inspired by this post, I took out the stand mixer and made my first-ever homemade pasta. Surprisingly easy!

They were ravioli, kinda. I started out doing what Micheal Ruhlman was doing in that link above, but soon switched to simple square ravioli - easier to handle. For filling, I defrosted some of John DeLucie's "white bolognese" sauce that I had made over Christmas, and cooked most of the liquid off. Parsnips, fennel, sage, veal and pork! very nice.

Wasn't sure what to do for a sauce, so I just made a standard red sauce.

Then I made French bread, which came out far too dense. It'll be good for French toast, though.

Makers Mark has changed its mind. They're not going to dilute their bourbon after all. Their customers beat em back.
