Red Linguine Clam Sauce with shrimp and Garlic buttered Bread

I made this for dinner tonight and forgot to take a picture sorry! I thought that my kids might not like it but it turns out they loved it and even had seconds. This is a very simple recipe you just have to time it right.
Ingredients:
1 pound of cooked shrimp
1 can of clams in juice
1 small diced onion
1 pound of linguine or angel hair pasta
1 can crushed tomatoes
parsley
3 or 4 cloves of garlic
2 or 3 pats of butter
pinch of sugar
Pillsbury Italian bread
Olive oil
2 tsp of tomato paste
Oregano
Directions;
Boil water for pasta. Thin pasta cooks rather fast so watch carefully. Saute garlic in olive oil for 2 minutes. Add the shrimp and drained clams, save the juice. Heat through and leave the lid on.
In a saucer begin sauteing the onions in butter or olive oil which ever you prefer. Begin adding the paste and reserved clam juice to the sauce. Next add your crushed tomatoes,parsley,sugar-taste first,salt and pepper. Let this simmer for about 7 minutes.Toss the clam and shrimp mixture in with the sauce and simmer for about 2 minutes. To make your garlic butter all you need to do is combine 1/4 butter with garlic diced well and a tsp of parsley, mash well. Don't forget to pop your bread in the oven prior to completing your meal.
