Tonight I started putting ornaments on my tree.  While I was doing that the boys were in the kitchen making homemade sausage   I took lots of pictures!  I will upload tomorrow with the final recipe.  I have to say it's been real tasty being the product tester this evening while they worked their way to the perfect combination of herbs and spices.

Oh yeah!  We have to pick up casings tomorrow because the boys had so much fun they want to make cased sausages   We wanted to give them a homemade gift to take home to their families to share for Christmas and it turned out to be so much more fun - at first it might as well have been a chore for the boys.  Once they tasted the product of their endeavors there was nothing but smiles and wonders of what else they could do with a pork roast.  Mission accomplished.  Pictures to follow come tomorrow along with a recipe if I can get hubby to divulge his secrets   I will tell you they made biscuits for tasting and mine was amazing!!!
