finally got around to visiting that new bookstore downtown. spent hours just wandering through the aisles, flipping through random books. found this old, dog-eared copy of a classic I've been meaning to read forever. was totally in my element and lost track of time.

also, been working on some new recipes at home. tried making homemade pasta for the first time... let's just say it was a bit of a mess, but tasted amazing. flour everywhere, but worth it for that fresh pasta taste. any tips for a newbie pasta maker?

anyway, hope y'all are having a chill week. if you need me, I'll be buried in my new book or covered in flour experimenting in the kitchen.
