Date Night: Homemade Pasta

 Okay so I know I said I would be posting our date nights so that you all could get ideas... ya well sorry haven't been very good at that. So here's my reconciliation a perfect date night that didn't cost me a thing.
Okay so I found this recipe here for homemade pasta. I had all the ingredients, but chances are you might need to buy semolina flour (yes I just had that on hand, remember the bread faze? It continues) or you could just use all-purpose.
We stuffed them with a chicken, parmesan, cream cheese type filling okay but I like them cheesier.

Her's look taster so if your up for buying ingredients I would recommended this plus the tutorial for how to stuff them is there too.

 So in order to speed things up and get us eating faster I set up mise en place, or everything in it's place, before he got home. Notice the recipe cards on the cabinets? I also split all the dough ingredients in half so that we could both mix and kneed and roll together. It's called bonding :) In the end it had a sort of culinary school meets Italian villa getaway feel to it.

Here's our finished product! mmm!
This was a super fun, super easy date night. I highly reccomend it.

Date Night: Sundae for Two

For Christmas my older sister gave me and Danny a box full of cheap date ideas. I thought I'd post our weekly adventures here so that everyone else can use these awesome ideas.

This week was Sundae for Two - Grab the biggest bowl you can find and 2 spoons. Then make the biggest ice cream sundae for two of you to share. Make sure it has all the toppings and ice cream you both like.


We opted to use a medium size bowl instead of our biggest since we ran a 5k today and we're feeling a little on the healthy side.
