Pesto & Yogurt Pasta

· 10 Comments

Jump to Recipe

Yogurt and homemade garden pesto makes a creamy and delicious pasta salad. Perfect for all your springtime soirees!

I love the rain. I love the way the dull gray light hits the corner of the chair by the window. I love the sound of rain softly pattering against the window and the light mist it leaves behind in the air.

The grass has regained its color again and the trees above have created a canopy of lush green. Such a different place from what I came home to some months ago.

It was definitely a cooking day. Standing by the window, lost in the silence, rolling sweet dough and making pesto.
