Creamy Tiramisu

This was my all time favorite dessert at Italian restaurants but now this is the TOPPER. The creaminess of the pudding is spectacular. The toppings was more than what I expected but all GREAT.

Pappardelle with Pork Ragu

Comically small amount of meat/sauce and way too many noodles. Flavors were good just a terrible ratio.
