Spaghetti Sauce, well yes, spaghetti sauce


Who has a well stocked pantry? I think, my husband thinks I'm crazy sometimes with the things I buy. I was able to get a HUGE can of tomato sauce for a couple buck about a year ago, I checked the date, and he asked what I would do with it. At a loss for words, I explained it away with, it's going on the shelf.
Today it becomes Spaghetti Sauce. I'll need to put the leftover into jars but that's a small task. Since its a gloomy day.
The day, oh yea, It's Good Friday.
