I want to start by saying everything in this blog isn't Swedish, but evolved from my grandmas Swedish heart. This blog is going to be a place to share about what our family has come to call, "Sausage Day".
It is the time and place when me, my sister D. and our mom and our families get to spend a fun day together.
I am going to be encouraging my family to share stories and pictures surrounding this special day for us.

| Sausage Day ~ I think 2002 |
I can't say I remember it when I was a baby but I know I must have been there. I remember going to grandmas on the first Sunday of December and the kitchen smelled of onions, potato's and meat. These are the basic ingredients to this wonderful sausage. The thing that sticks out to me is grandma would fry up this little meat patty of the sausage makings and we would all get a little taste to see if it had enough salt (this part of the story really grows when my sister and I start hosting it). Then this meat would get put into casings with funnels. After it was made it would get packaged up and frozen till Christmas eve. I have to say that my favorite scent of Christmas is the smell of this sausage cooking it always makes me remember walking into grandmas house on Christmas eve.
More to come...
