Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. saw the recipe as prepared on Ludlow Pub TV. Can’t wait to start fooling around with pasta and artichokes in my kitchen!
yummmmmmmy looking. Can’t wait to try some arty-choke cooking with pasta in my kitchen!
Hey… that was really yummy looking and I am looking forward to you(Jackie) actually making that for me. I might ask you to use wheat pasta. And yes, I do use 2 boxes of pudding for the pudding pie but it is actually too much and I pour the excess into a glass and give the extra to your father.
