I don't know about you but I love pasta and really anything that is considered a carbohydrate like bread, potatoes, rice, etc. I don't think I could have done the no carb thing a few years ago. Anyway a while ago I was making homemade noodles for our chicken noodle soup and I kept thinking how much better they would have been with a real pasta machine.

My thoughts were answered today when I saw this post on Happy Housewife with the pasta machine she used. Now the only reason I am mentioning this is because at her site right now she is hosting a giveaway for 1 pasta machine. If you have any interest in making your own pasta head over there now and enter to win.

Good luck!

My mind is on Christmas cookies like you can tell from yesterday's post and picture. I was reading one of the blogs I follow, Frugal Coupon Living, and they are having a great giveaway for a cookie press by Pampered Chef. If you don't have one of these get over there and enter. You will love it for the holidays!
