Well the A train was moving exceptionally slow today, and for once I was not upset because I got to read a hella lot of Giulia (whom I may have developed a girl crush on). I feel like we would be friends if we ever met. First the is the whole all girl catholic school thing…nuff said. Then I also went to a college with an insane girl to guy ratio (great for the guys, not so much for me spreading my wings). Some of her stories post college were so similar to my own life. Obviously, this being a blog of all things culinary and literary, her incorporation of her recipes into the literature was hilarious and I thought very well timed. I loved the inclusion of the Pastina recipe. My mother also made pastina (sans egg however, so I am curious to try this one) whenever we were sick. Which, is actually quite counter-intuitive, I mean butter and cheese and baby pasta post puking? But it worked! I was also very excited to find a Pumpkin Bread recipe mixed in with Ethan! I needed a brunch bread recipe for my in laws and I think this will be it!
