This will be the first in a series of new things we try to cook at home rather than buy at the store. The first experiment was homemade pasta—specifically, ravioli. I found a simple pasta recipe on the internet (2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 cups semolina flour, 6 eggs, and a pinch of salt), and made up a filling from sweet potatoes, pepper, breadcrumbs, and egg. We served it with a creamy alfredo sauce, topped with a sprinkling of nutmeg. I think it turned out delicious. Julie said it was a little too sweet (but she did think the pasta was excellent), and the kids thought it was too filling.
After we started eating, Julie asked what the filling was. After I told her that it was sweet potato, James said, “Dad, you shouldn’t have said that. Now it doesn’t taste quite so good to me."

I think you need to add a label to this post like "James says".
