Pasta la vista, baby


So we decided to dig out the pasta machine and have a go at making our own - I've owned the machine for years, but only made pasta once or twice way back when.  I made the dough and the kids did the rolling part (with the help of Olivia's friend Nina, who was also here at the time). 


It was quite a successful group effort, really - needs several pairs of hands, ideally. 




We then turned it into a yummy canneloni dish - not sure I'd want to make the pasta myself every time, though it certainly wasn't hard, and the kids enjoyed doing it. We will definitely give ravioli/other filled pasta a try though - I think that's something worth doing homemade...
