Pearing Pasta

And on another note:
10 lbs of pear-blems mentioned below has been rectified with the aid of one Magic Chef food dehydrator lent by the illustrious lady J9. About 8 lbs of pears are now desiccating in my kitchen for future mastication.

And pasta round 1 is done:
pasta is a skill.
I am learning.
It is veryvery fun.
Plastic hangers are good for drying pasta before storing.
You can't let fresh pasta get too dry, 'cause then it's not "fresh" now is it.

anyway...
