Homemade Gnocchi and Pesto with salad

was our Sunday dinner.  We spent the day to the park at the Portland Sunday Parkway.  A fun event, where the streets are closed to cars.  Only bikers and pedestrians are allowed - this weekend was the Southeast Portland Sunday Parkway and it was actually a total of 9 miles.  No, we did not walk the entire 9 miles but probably close to 4 miles.  Not too shabby for a little urban hike to the playground.   Anyways, you want to read about our dinner, right?  Remember the produce I received last week?  Well, we still had plenty of potatoes left.  Perfect night for Gnocchi with pesto.  We did have pesto, as I made it {walnut} a couple of weeks ago and froze in an heart-shaped ice cube tray.  The pesto looks so cute :) - three hearts, defrosted it slowly and added some parmesiano regiano to it. It was ready by the time,  the gnocchi came out of the water...Oh, and here is the link to the post with my recipe for the gnocchi -> http://galactopdx.blogspot.com/2009/07/homemade-easy-gnocchi-pesto-recipe.html  It is comfort food!
