Yeah, I always use all fresh ingredients except for a can or two of peeled to do some heavy lifting for me. I once made a sauce where the base was all fresh farmers market heirloom tomatoes and it was fucking nuts. But mostly I can't be bothered to go to those lengths. Pasta is a "convenience meal" for me because it's so easy to make by just throwing together a few mostly fresh ingredients (plus wine). Using non-canned tomatoes pushes it just out of reach for me most nights.
