Spaghetti & Italian Cheesy Meatballs

Lazy rainy Sunday evening and the kids gave me the push I needed to produce my first cooking video...I'm truly happy they did.  I see Youtube as a way to pass on traditions from generation to generations..  Vlogging along with tradtional pen and paper is the perfect way for my kids to always know what Mom put in her sauce :).. So, I hope that what I see as a great way to pass on traditions and make new ones will inspire you to do the same. The world needs more of that,

 Enjoy!
