    Pesto Gnocchi

    Good rainy morning to you all! I have a big presentation this morning to the big man on campus here at work and all his staff so this is going to be a short and sweet intro. Need to prepare!

Either way even though I don’t get nervous I do like to be prepared for the pack of wolves I am about to get up in front of, haha. This recipe that I am…
