We ate very well at school this week!  The thing I've looked most forward to doing there is making homemade pasta and I finally got to do it Tuesday.  It was HEAVEN!!!  Julianne enjoyed the leftovers.  My next favorite thing (and hers) was gnocchi.  I will make gnocchi a lot at home.  I want to make pasta but I have no pasta roller and no space to roll it by hand--not that I won't attempt it anyway.  The hardest part of the week was the galantine.  We completely boned a chicken and left it in one piece a' la Jacques Pepin (except ours were stuffed with pesto).  That was a little intimidating but I'm glad that I know how now.  It was delicious!
