Mom Marcon's Spaghetti Sauce

Description
This is my mom's spaghetti sauce recipe. She was a full blooded Italian, and a great cook. This sauce thickens up while it cooks. She never measured anything, as you can see from her seasoning ingredients. She would just eyeball it and toss it in. I still cook that way today.

Serve over spaghetti, ravioli, Lasagna, etc. may be frozen for later use. A TNT recipe.
