serves pasta in Los Angeles
My routine for almost a year, give or take the months it took to figure out the right rhythm of the business, revovled around making pasta. Every Monday I sent an email to a growing number of family and friends who bought me out of pasta every time. I also posted my offerings on Instagram, where my mom’s watercolor posters were the main attraction.

On Fridays and Saturdays I packed ice packs, pasta and sauce into a small cooler and drove all over town delivering the goods. I usually ended up standing on the doorstep of a friend’s to chat. These deliveries were a constant that I came to really appreciate in a time of complete uncertainty. 


Below are the posters, pastas and sauces I created for people during the pandemic. At the very bottom of the page is a video from friends enjoying my pasta :)
