I really love using my KitchenAid mixer to make pasta. I used to make pasta by hand, and it really is a lot faster and easier with the attachments. Rolling out the dough is especially nice with the attachment because I had a hard time achieving the desired thickness by hand :)

I'm a cyclist that trains after work, so I usually eat a protein-rich snack around 5:00 before I leave work (almonds, cheese, greek yogurt, etc) so I'm not hungry during my workout. I eat something with easily available sugars immediately after my workout like a Glenny's (http://www.glennys.com/cranberry-and-almond-bar-1-1oz-bars.html) bar so that I can make dinner without feeling woozy. I tried making my own version of Glenny's bars, but could never get the consistency right...
