Updates & Reminders

• Please close the side openings of the dumpsters after you empty your trash so no critters get inside
• Reminder that e-scooters and bikes should not be stored inside apartments, please store them outside in the bike racks

This week’s Townhouse Treat is another pumpkin recipe, but for those who prefer the savory side of things. This week’s treat is a pumpkin alfredo! If you prefer to omit the heavy cream for lactose purposes, feel free to substitute with coconut cream or a dairy-free heavy cream. You can also completely forgo the heavy cream and just use the pasta water to thicken the sauce. If that's more your speed, just reserve a little extra pasta water. If you happen to have fresh parsley on hand, you can top the pasta with it after serving for a real deal pasta experience. Hope you enjoy!
