  1. Thanks for the comment -- and what a coincidence. Hillsboro is my hometown! The spaghetti sauce looks great. I love the texture of the sauce when it's been slow cooking all day ...

  4. Oh, how great this recipe sounds. I can smell it cooking! Sadly, my stomach will not tolerate any tomato base any longer...what a drag! So I'll just enjoy reading and imagining that great taste. :0)

    Thanks so much for coming by for a visit. I'm always happy to hear from you.

    I wish your New Year to be merry and bright with more bliss than ever!
