Steps:
- Let's start simple for the kids. You'll bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the penne and cook it until al dente. Drain it-like always, you know.
- In the meantime, heat the olive oil in another medium pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and let bloom until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and a small pinch of salt. Let simmer for about 5 minutes. Add in the heavy cream and simmer another 5.
- Reserve about 1/2 cup of the penne and divide between 2 small bowls. Ladle the creamy sauce over the pasta and garnish with Parmesan. Maybe add a little bit of basil if your kids like it. Done!
- Now for you: Let's get back to the creamy sauce. Add the Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper and vodka; let it simmer another 5 minutes or so. Taste it and add a pinch of salt if needed.
- You can either toss the remaining pasta with the sauce (my preferred method), or ladle the sauce over the penne. Do whatever makes you sob like a baby.
- Garnish with more freshly grated Parmesan and basil leaves! Serve with a giant green salad, crusty bread and WINE (obviously the wine). All caps necessary. For the love. The end.

Tips:
- Use high-quality tomatoes. The better the tomatoes, the better the sauce will be. Look for ripe, flavorful tomatoes that are in season.
- Don't overcook the tomatoes. Overcooked tomatoes will lose their flavor and become mushy. Cook them just until they are softened and have released their juices.
- Add some herbs and spices. Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of the sauce. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
- Let the sauce simmer. Simmering the sauce for a while will help to develop its flavor. The longer you simmer it, the better it will taste.
- Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta. Penne, spaghetti, and macaroni are all good choices.
