From Pat Gold's collection.
Pat Gold was a friend of mine, and she died about a year and a half ago.
She worked very hard to help create this newsgroup. I am thrilled to be
able to present some of the recipes she collected, as a memorial to her.

the salt and the capellini and cook according to the package directions
