Junkyard 4 Week 7

This morning, after making spaghetti carbonara last night, I brewed tea in a kettle and watched a cat climb up the tree hanging over my back porch. Using its paws, it pulled itself over the wall and onto the wicker table where a squirrel would sit if it were warm. Kelsey reads out loud a BuzzFeed list on 27 pasta recipes to keep you warm this winter, and carbonara doesn't include pepper, apparently. I think about the pasta maker under my cabinet and wonder, also out loud, if I should have taken a class on getting the dough right.
