Think of it as going back to my roots if you will.

Did you know that Farfalle means Butterfly? Here in American, we call Farfalle “Bow-Tie” pasta; and I can see that, but Butterfly is so much prettier, don’t you think? Unless you are going for something that sounds more retro; in which case Bow Tie Pasta has a nice ring to it.

I know, it’s Friday and generally speaking; Fridays are all about the seafood and fish and suppers that are in keeping with Old School Catholic teachings. But today I thought we’d have a little fun with something sweet.
