Some tomatoes, potatoes, corn, pumpkins...not sure what else. Happy Spring to you and yours!<br /><br />Hadn't thought of pasta but that's a great idea, Nancy. Cozy with Abba...yes!<br /><br />Many hands make light work...it's true, Pondside!<br /><br />Hi Debby - the sausage was/is good; still have some in the freezer even though I gave Daddy John a dozen.

Not sure what's wrong but I am visiting. There are a lot of blogs blogger won't allow me to comment...??? what's up with that?<br /><br />Hi Martha Ellen, thanks for commenting; I'm still having troubles with same comment box and post but I have been visiting.

Your sausage looks good. Years ago we used to get together with the neighbours in the spring to make sausage from whatever we all had in the freezer. Two of us had machines for making links and we'd work all day on a Friday, and then on the Saturday we'd have a street party with pancakes and sausage. The kids have such nice memories of that.<br />The farm will sell and the sale will be the right one. It's just so hard to wait!Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13163430.post-5423447362674942342016-05-04T07:45:49.387-04:002016-05-04T07:45:49.387-04:00Your sausage must be absolutely delicious.
