Mom's Spaghetti Meat Sauce

Mom's spaghetti was my favorite dinner growing up.  When I went to college I ate plenty of spaghetti, but always from the jar, never homemade.  After a while spaghetti dropped off my list of favorite dinners.  When I got married I decided to make Mom's sauce and remembered why I loved spaghetti so much.  Nothing beats it.  I usually double the recipe and freeze the extra. This way it make three meals for our family.   -Amy
