Peas, Pasta, basil and cheese are all you need to warm your heart. I had not imagined the combination to blend so well and make this gorgeous light pasta sauce.
So, One day you open the email and find that you finally see the mail that you have waited for, for 2 years. The joy is unparalleled. For me it was the mail that thoushaltcook.com is live and it moved to Cucumbertown. It has been a long journey but an awe-inspiring one.
Here is my recipe for the pasta sauce that I made yesterday to celebrate.
