gnocchi

 [nok-ee, noh-kee; It. nyawk-kee]

since the fireman has been at work for the past three days (in fireman language it's called "A 72"... 72 hours) i wanted to find an extra special recipe to make for him when he gets home tomorrow! i was browsing around my go-to food inspiration sights and fell-in-love with this brown-sugary-extra-buttery Pumpkin Gnocchi dish. i mean come on, deeeeelsih! homemade gnocchi?! my mouth is watering. i've always wanted to learn how to make gnocchi... but have had the vision that gnocchi can only be made by lovely 5ft Italian women named Fiorenza (or Izabella) that could also make Tiramisu w. their eyes closed. but that is not the case!!! us 6ft blonde babes can make it too!! it may not be as good, but hey, i'll try(!) before i go any further i need to credit the fabulous creator of this Pumpkin Gnocchi The Steamy Kitchen. i don't know about you guys, but we're having homemade gnocchi for dinner this week... and i can't wait!

wow that looks delish! your blog is awesome. i'm so glad i found it! :) and it's so funny that you referenced him as 'the fireman' instead of using his name. my friend is dating a fireman and she calls him 'fireman'. one time she almost introduced him that way.

anyway, i will be following! have a lovely week!

love
