Friday night was date night here and while most women would prefer to be taken out and wined and dined, I asked if we could stay in and test out my pasta maker. Being the good sport that he is and willing to put up with most of my silly ideas, Broccoli agreed and even helped me make the dough, run it through the pasta maker and cook a yummy and homemade fettuccine and red sauce dunner. We laughed and joked and pretended that we actually knew what we were doing and just had a blast! I forgot to take pictures, but it was hilarious trying to find spots to put all of this rolled and cut pasta in my teeny tiny kitchen.
Of course, I made enough fettuccine to feed an army, but it was delicious and I'm so glad I decided to use my birthday money for this. It is definitely money well spent! I am even making good on my promise to my co-workers and I'm bringing in a batch for them to try tomorrow! Who knows, I may become the Mario Batali or Giada De Laurentiis of the office. Think they'd let me transfer from Accountant to Office Chef??
