Lets Make Pasta!

      Once in a while it's always great to make your own homemade pasta. Although it's much easier to go to your local supermarket and grab some pasta, making your own is a fantastic experience. Making pasta can be a pain, but once you understand how to do it, and got it down to a science, it's wonderful. Once a month on a sunday, my mother and I dig the Pasta Machine out from the basement.  Once the kitchen is all set up and ready to go, we begin the day making our pasta. 

      Most of the time the pasta comes out pretty darn good. But sometimes it doesn't come out as good as other times. Thats the risk of creating your own homemade pasta! But the fact is that your trying, and your making your own pasta. It's cool to say you made your own pasta, and even more cool when it comes out really really good. 

      My family usually makes the call on how good it is. Although my mother and I know right off the bat whether it's going to be good or not, we still leave it to them. Cause hey, it doesn't matter what you think, it matters what who your serving thinks! Right?

     Next time you have a chance, grab a nice pasta machine and make some homemade pasta. Not only is it a fun project, but a fun experience as well. Learn how they use to do it back in Italy in the old country. Pasta makers are fantastic machines, and I feel every family who eats pasta on a regular basis should have one to use every one in a while
