I guess that's the wonder of computers, especially when under my tutelage. So to get back to your question,I actually discovered the pasta at Costco of all places. As for the names,it does make you wonder. It was great fun to stop and actually translate the different pasta names. Even I, as an Italian growing up on pasta, never gave the names a second thought.Anna Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07936379445132121497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766787578613058302.post-48435061156020873382010-07-08T08:06:09.666-04:002010-07-08T08:06:09.666-04:00Ava, sometimes the simplest recipes are the best, ...Ava, sometimes the simplest recipes are the best, and you can vary the ingredients as you see fit.

I just thought of one more Italian dish name that makes me smile-Tiramisu, also extremely delicious, a nice dessert after a fantastic pasta like the one above.AvaDJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14480749979238438283noreply@blogger.com
