New Christmas tradition





For a couple years in a row now we have been getting a package in the mail from my relatives in Michigan. This special package has precious loot inside: Polish sausage! Not just any Polish sausage, mind you. This is the best Polish Kielbasa sausage obtainable in North America. And yes, I do have a significant amount of Polock in my blood... long live the Poles!

Faustina loves this sausage so much-she becomes a carnivore when we have it. Kid just chows it down. Mirabile visu.

So, on Christmas eve we snack on this sacred sausage and decorate the Christmas tree. Cynthia also makes Grandma Gail's special dinner rolls which are also excellent. It is a relaxing and fun day. We have now decided to do this every year. We also got dumped on by the snow this year so it was fun to go outside. I wrote about this here.

We have also been making egg-rolls with our friends Andy and Ruthie during the Christmas "break." We have breakfast, then we pack and roll up quite a few egg-rolls and cook them in... grease! They are really good. We are slated to do it this Thursday morning after breakfast. Nice!
