Vitamixer Fresh Tomato Sauce

I made the Vitamixer recipe for fresh tomato sauce last night. I really think it would be better with roasted tomatoes but that would add a lot of cooking time. I was surprised it called for brown sugar instead of white. I didn't taste a huge difference it was just different from a typical spaghetti sauce. I like that the only thing that came from a can was 2 tablespoons of tomato paste.

I overheard a woman at Fresh Market telling her kid that they couldn't have spaghetti and meatballs because it was almost noon and it would take too long. I made tomato sauce, baked chicken parm, and spaghetti last night for dinner and it took about 30 minutes. I feel bad for that kid who probably really wanted spaghetti and meatballs.
Spaghetti is one of my favorite foods!

Kelsey's Pub and Restaurant Thanksgiving

Kelsey's was one of the few places selling a Thanksgiving for 2 and it was only $75. It came with turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, stuffing with sausage, green bean casserole gravy, cranberry sauce, and rolls with a honey butter. I ordered an additional apple pie too. It was a perfect amount and I managed to get everything reheated ready to eat in 1 hour.
