Pasta Making at home

So if you have been reading my blog, you know that I took a pasta making class. FUN! I totally recommend it.  However I decided to make some at home without a machine, never mind you that I am a horrible homemaker who does not have a rolling pin in the house (hysterically freaking scream here). I decided to use a wine bottle :). The dough worked out quite well. I made my little volcano cater of flour added my egg, salt and olive oil, beat it with a fork just like Chef Rochelle and it came together nicely, I did not  this time, however add too much flour. Yay me. so I start rolling it out over and over and over and over again. Have I mentioned this is by hand with a wine bottle. I eventually just got tired of rolling it out and decided that I could see my hand through it if I held it up to the light it should be fine   or    not ha ha. While my ravioli were good the pasta was definitely too thick I will have to roll a little thinner next time. I am not discouraged though, I will make it again perhaps even this afternoon :) I must perfect my pasta making skills as I am obsessed with becoming a better homemaker :). Until next time


Update! I did own a rolling pin I over looked it like 5 times Sigh!

Dehydration

I have a bad habit of not drinking enough fluids. I am just rarely thirsty. This leads to Doctors thinking I am unable to keep fluids down when I am sick and apparently today to my legs and head hurting. While I have no official diagnosis, as it seems this pain came on after a couple days of drinking wine with friends I feel that must be what it is. If only I knew how to run an IV and could run a couple of bags of saline through my system for the night. I am sure that this pain in my legs and head would go away quickly. Sigh, maybe I can find someone to teach me :)
