behold the heavenly stuffed pasta goodness:

I made gluten-free ravioli from scratch! successfully! I didn't think it could ever come out right after being discouraged before but this recipe is amazing! it's genius even! stuffed pasta was the biggest casualty of being gluten-free. I have ordered them at Da Luciano and they were so good so I knew I could do it. I just had to get bored and patient enough to try it. it really is so easy to make them. I may even ask for a pasta roller attachment for my Kitchen Aid or ravioli maker for Christmas! I have to do my research and find the best brand. does anyone have any advice on this?
I'm going to try making other pasta from scratch too. maybe even tortellini? I'm feeling super ambitious!

The Swell Season created magic last night. They were so full of joy and energy. They were so endearing and charming. Glen told great stories just like any good Irishman. I never wanted it to end. The concert was absolutely extraordinary!

i know why

a free bird leaps on the back of the wind
and floats downstream till the current ends
and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.

but a bird that stalks down his narrow cage
can seldom see through his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.

the caged bird sings with a fearful trill
of things unknown but longed for still
and his tune is heard on the distant hill
for the caged bird sings of freedom.

I watched this movie last night

Isn't it funny when things become relevant to people at the same time? You'll be talking about something and someone will say, "I was just talking/thinking/listening to/watching that the other day!"

anyway, found these "A Little Princess" screen shots from The Unicorn Diaries

g'day ♥
