homemade pasta and pesto

whenever we have guests over, especially one’s from out of the country who are friends with either our son or his girlfriend, cinda pulls out all the stops. this night was homemade pasta and pesto, and caprese salad, green beans with spring onions and sundried tomatoes, and fresh peaches with a tofu yogurt sauce and granola for desert.

[most photos were with a super-takumar 55mm f2 lens (that i bought today) mounted on my olympus E-P2. the wide angle shots were with a olympus 17mm.]
