-2 oz (60 ml) olive oil
-about 10 small mushrooms, sliced
-1 small yellow onion, sliced
-1 garlic clove, chopped
-1 small fennel bulb, sliced
-1/2 bunch fresh spinach (including stemps) chopped into 1 in. pieces
-splash of white wine
-6 oz (180 ml) heavy cream
-salt and pepper
-pinch of dry dill (optional)
Method
Cook tagiatelle according to the instructions on the package, until "al dente". Drain and pour a little olive oil, stirring to prevent the tagliatelle from sticking.
In the meantime, heat the 2 oz. olive oil in a frying pan and fry mushrooms over high heat until they start to brown. Add onion, garlic and fennel and continue cooking for a couple of minutes.
Add a splash of white wine to deglaze the pan.
Add the chopped spinach and continue cooking until it's wilted.
Lower heat and add cream. Continue cooking until cream is slightly thickened.
Season with salt and pepper. Adding a pinch of dill will bring out the taste of the fennel.

Never Too Late To Start Something New
I am 43 years old and I would like to start my first blog ever by saying that I have found a new passion in Internet Marketing. I can't say that I know much, but I am learning something new everyday that will bring me closer to the independence I'm wishing for (or so I think). Independence not only from an office job but most importantly from having a boss.
I started my first ever Adwords campaign on 21/Oct/2006 after reading "Beating Adwords" and tried promoting several products after that. I made some pretty good commissions mostly with one single product, but my nice profits have been eaten up by my other unsuccesful campaigns.
What I really need to do now is to learn how to write articles. Since I have no idea how to do that I thought a good way to start would be by posting blogs.
