My mouth was watering reading your description of your sandwich.

...Mary, thank you so much for stopping by my site.<br /><br />My husband's mother was second generation Sicilian and his father Neapolitan. We grew up in Rome, New York. There were enough Italian immigrants to ultimately change the name of an old New York city from Lynchville to Rome. Although I am just about pure English, I did grow up with the language, cooking, and pastries from their old country. <br /><br />I did not know my husband's grandparents, but I am forever searching for good Italian recipes, Sicilian in particular, (his mother, not so much a cook). <br /><br />Okay, off to look for cookies.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06522725338783631084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986801201760240722.post-68594024564035518552009-12-06T10:07:27.535-05:002009-12-06T10:07:27.535-05:00Mary, what a great sausage recipe to have. And you...Mary, what a great sausage recipe to have. And your Meatball Sub is marvelous, too. I bet this sausage can be used in so many different ways.<br /><br />I are so right about small communities making up the backbone of a town or city. When I lived in St. Louis, I'd wander down to communities like you describe to experience their culture & their incredible food. Thanks for a wonderful story leading into your terrific recipe.George Gastonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14788686834764003341noreply@blogger.com
