Today, Amaya led us through the amazing experience of pasta making from scratch. She insisted we make ranch pasta dough to complement the pea and smoked beef fat filling she told me to finish. On rainy days, I can tend to be lethargic. Thankfully, she is a taskmaster, and since she did not have to oversee the gardening duties, she could make sure I was not lazy in the kitchen. These are our results. Perhaps a finished dish and a recipe or two tomorrow, if she lets us.
