Default She liked my balls

Dinner last night was sausage, meatballs pasta.

Sausage was store bought Italian. For the sauce, I was checking out the
canned good that sometimes get lost and found three cans of tomatoes
getting old. Once crushed, one diced, one grated. I mixed them all
together and added seasoning. Added the sausage and let it simmer a few
hours.

The meatballs are based on an old tried and true Italian method. Ground
beef, veal, pork. To that, mix in stale Italian bread that was soaked
in water to soften, an egg, grated cheese, garlic, onion, oregano, S & P.

Brown them and toss in the sauce for a half hour or so.

My wife proclaimed the sauce and meatballs to be the best she has had in
a long time.

Tonight will be leftovers with Asiago cheese bread from a local bakery
and another bottle of Chianti.
