I tried to fight it. I laughed it off. Tried other recipes. But, in the end, I had to admit that it was true:

The spaghetti sauce recipe from The Godfather is freaking fantastic.

Yes, the spaghetti recipe is really good. If you've ever seen The Godfather, then you probably know it. 

Ground beef, ground pork, salt, tomatoes, tomato paste, olive oil, garlic, onion, and a few glugs of red wine. Boom. The best sauce you'll ever eat is hidden in plain view right in the middle of a classic film. Try it, and thank me later.

What, exactly does spaghetti sauce & creativity have to do with each other?

Simple.

Stay open & receptive. The world spins and twirls and shimmies past you.

Pay attention. A lot of it won't matter. Some of it will.  And, if you pay close enough attention, some of it will nourish you.

Bon Appetit.
