Lemony Pesto Pasta



I've wanted to try this recipe for a few months.  This weekend, I had my first venture in making fresh pasta.  It seemed like a great recipe to try along with the pasta.  The recipe turned out great.  Below are a few snap shots from the pasta making process.  I'll have to write more later.
