Ruth and spaghetti sauce

Today I asked Ruth to make a pot of bolognese sauce for our dinner. I'm sure there are a lot of things that can go wrong when making a pot of bolognese sauce, but I have never tasted bolognese sauce that has zero taste of tomatoes. In my new local parlance, there was nada tomato-y about this sauce. What did she put in there????

Clearly bolognese isn't one of her strengths, but she more than made up for it by going all over creation to buy a gorgeous and humongous bromeliad (after a couple futile attempts at floral bouquets) for Jimmy to take to a dinner tonight as a hostess gift. That, my friends, was worth the price of admission today!
