When I think of home–the place I grew up – I think of the food that I loved and can only purchase there. I miss the local bakeries that sell a wide variety of fresh bread, rolls, loaves, and fresh dough.
I miss the bakeries that make half moon cookies and headlights. Simple wants and items that I always ‘pig out’ on when I return to Upstate NY.
Is it like that for you too?
boy, is it ever!!! Now that I’m going back home to Sweden to visit in September, I know exactly what I will have … there are certain things that I can’t get here or make myself. There’s a certain kind of sausage, for example …and also some type of yoghurt-ish milk that’s had for breakfast [difficult to explain]. I think I’ll write a blog about that sausage… it’s very useful LOL
The other thing that I dearly miss are the NY apples! They are so crisp, sweet and tasty! Add some cheddar cheese and you have a whole meal! Can’t wait to read about the sausage!
I am going to my hometown in NY soon…and it is all about the food! I hope I don’t come back 5 lbs heavier!
