After reading over the recipe, it must have taken you longer to make this than it does me to make my spaghetti sauce. Next week, I am making spaghetti sauce which is excellent, I assure you, and we will send two quarts of it to you with the spaghettini and instructions as to what to do with it. I bow to the master chef because we have eaten gefilte fish all over the country but never have we tasted anything better than yours. Thanks a million. Dottie and Bill".
