Penne Con Ragu (Penne with Meat Sauce)

It has been almost a year since i last cooked (Getting a bit rusty). Cooking is one of my fav. hobbies since i started when i was 12. Today i cooked my fav. - Pasta. Fell in love with pasta when i was in poly, esp those with tomato base cos its so simple to cook yet delicious.

I am an easily satisfied person, just contented with a simple yet happy life just like pasta. But it seems during the past few weeks and things tat are going to happen in the next few weeks will be making my life complicated and miserable. Well if tats my destiny i will have to face it bravely. For i control my own destiny.
