I don't remember what brand I bought last time... :) Wikipedia to the rescue: Ragú

But I'll have to try tomato sauce as well because I have no idea what e.g. Ragu is.

Therefore, I decided to <em>try</em> and wait till about the end of the year when I'll have enough money in my home saving account. Maybe I could start searching again around my birthday... On Sunday I saw a lovely 60m<sup>2</sup> apartment which was surprisingly inexpensive but it's monthly fee (maintenance, garbage disposal, water etc.) was bigger than usual for no apparent reason. And yesterday I saw an apartment which was really nice. Its layout was identical to the apartment of an old couple we know (not blood relatives) which was kind of creepy -- but the kitchen was beautiful! Loads of storage space.
