Wildlife in the Nijmegen Countyside involves planting these bison-like creatures in recreational areas. I heard yesterday that there are designer shoes using real goat hooves as the (high) heel.


Yesterday was also pasta day....we had a sweat kitchen going to make the egg pasta (1 egg per 100g plain strong flour (preferable durum pasta flour but we didn't have that)
(with my new Aldi-bought pasta roller- I am a proud Aldi/Lidl fan- I would join the fan club if they had one.)
two sorts of fillings: blue cheese and chicken, sage & pine nuts with spinach sauce (Both were Delicious- blue cheese is a wonderfood, and the combi of the second filling was subtle, with the texture of the semi-crushed nuts and black truffle oil fragrance)

accompanied by olive and thyme bread.















I"m having trouble putting the captions in the right places for the photos (HTML idiot) so I'll just skip the (obvious) captions now (e.g. making the ravioli, eating the ravioli).

Hey, nice photos.
I second Kelly in saying that the pasta was really yummy, and tastier because I knew we had made it.
The boys liked it too.
