After that, made madeleines, which took us to 2010, when we toasted. We made it, hooray! Ate our madeleines with nutella (YUM) and headed home around 2am.

Today, pancake breakfast with more friends, their tradition. Tasty vanilla bean with a little poppy seed pancakes, even. Yum. Later we had some fresh pasta and mushrooms with havarti, tasty! For dinner, back to normal, with tacos (which I eat on a plate without a shell anyway).

Thinking about making homemade ravioli tomorrow. I don't usually eat this much pasta, but having it fresh just makes you want to have it fresh.
I've been coveting at that pasta attachment, but thinking I don't need to be having pasta in the house all the time. It does look like fun though. Madeleines are my favorite - and nutella sounds like the perfect topping for them. Yum.
