Shape the ground beef into meatballs and brown lightly in skillet just so they hold their shape. Take off the heat and set aside. Brown the sausage, pour off excess grease, and set aside. Cook the garlic in the olive oil and add the tomatoes and tomato paste. Bring to a boil. Add sausage and ground beef. Add wine and sugar. Simmer all day if you can, 2 hours minimum.
