Generally, fresh pasta has eggs, dried pasta does not.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Most commercially made pasta is egg-free (but comes with a "THE MACHINE NEXT TO THE ONE MAKING THE STUFF IN HERE MAY HAVE HAD SOME EGGS OR NUTS ON IT" warning on the box for allergic peeps).
So a high-end Italian restaurant is probably not serving vegan pasta, but spaghetti almost anywhere else should be okay.

Except for Olive Garden. Someone I know went through their menu and concluded that there was not a single vegan item, or even much that could be made vegan (like, say, at some similar places, getting an individual pizza with a bunch of veggies and no cheese works.) They even wrote to the Olive Garden management, asking if there was anything vegan, and if not, if they could consider adding something vegan to the menu, since there are lots of families that have a vegan member and would like to go to a family restaurant like Olive Garden but can't because there's nothing for that one family member to eat, and got a response that was basically, "No. We know our customers, and we're not changing anything."
(Emailing restaurant chains like that can actually work. I know a bunch of people who've tried it at other chains and gotten responses like, "We've heard from several of our customers about this issue, and we are now working on adding new items to our menu." Or, at the very least, a good PR person can throw together a "Thank you for your suggestion" response. I can't remember the exact wording of the Olive Garden response, but, for something coming from a customer services person, it was really rude.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
You made a baby--you know a LOT about girls.
You know, wile he's a teenager I think I'd be discouraging him from this kind of 'knowledge'.
Tell him all about the ducks and the echidnas! Though you probably want to leave out the mallard snuff porn. And possibly the corkscrew penis.
Hee. So if he asks about girls, I should distract him? I like that.
Otherwise, I'd have to fall back on personal experience. I met his mother through online dating, maybe I should start there. "You know, son, you can find women on the internet."
Maybe not.

Yay for 5 year clean bill of health, Ginger. I just wish it didn't have to come with random pain.

I'm sorry, those folk have it all ass backwards.

This is how it sounds in my head.
Waves hello at Kalliope, no matter how her family says it.
