Really Fresh Pasta

It's Wednesday night and we are watching America's Got Talent. How do these people figure out they can do these things?  Makes you wonder what I can do and don't know it yet!  We had Aden's last baseball game tonight.  I'm kind of sad about it.  We never ended up getting him a new glove or a bat.  Oh well, there is always next year.  

Back to New York Saturday night.  After the Shake Shack, we wandered over to Baked by Melissa for tiny little cupcakes.

 So many to choose from.

 Ariel got her 6.

 Yummy!

 We passed by this new apartment building going up.  Tom Brady got one.  Aden says he wants one too!  It's only $10 mil a floor!

 I guess New Yorkers have rediscovered the Rangers.  

 Aden, the Empire State Building and a goofy smile.

 The Flatiron Building and an even goofier smile.

 The last stop was Eataly, Mario Batali's crazy Italian market/restaurant place.  

 Always busy and always new things to discover.

 We picked up some fresh pasta then headed home.  Only took about an hour and a half.  Aden slept but Ariel talked the whole way.

 This was what I did with the pasta the next night.  Came out yummy!

Sunday, after the princess party, we went to Andy and Alicia's new house.  They moved a few months ago but this was our first chance to get over.  Aden and Brendan immediately picked up where they left off.

 Devin took Ariel all around and played with her.  

 Even outside.

 They shared their water ice.

 The house was great.  Such a nice kitchen.

 Ariel said not to touch it, it was hot.  

 Not very lady like to climb in a dress!  We had a great time and hopefully will see them again soon.

 That night we had dinner with my family.

 Ariel and her friends.  She will miss them this summer.  Hopefully most will be in her class next year.

 I passed by a Bugatti Veyron on the way to work.  Might have bee the first one I saw in person.  Anyone want to go in on one with me?  You can get a used one for around $1 mil!  We will need one to go with the $10 mil apartment!

 My cousins Taylor and Carol from Florida wanted to see my grandmother.  She is Carol's aunt.  

 We squeezed in as many cousins as we could!

 My grandmother and her brothers around 1930.  If any of you watch Boardwalk Empire, could they be Nucky's kids?  My grandmother has some amazing pictures including ones from Russia around the turn of the century.
