It’s more t
meats the eye

it wits the variety of home-oiide
siusages in the case that impressed
me,

That day's offering included
chicken sausage with roast onion,
Roman-style Halian Sausage with
gartic and red wing, and spicy
Chorizo done Mexican-style with
aniseed and cayenne.

There were also hot talian
siusages wilh cracked black pepper
and red wine plump Lamb sausages
favored with mint, garlic and rose-
mary, and Swedish potato
Sausages, .

The good news is that Heather

*

and Linda's sausages are quite abit |

lower in fat all around, (“with
enough fat to make them real
sausages”) but still retaining that
characteristic sausage “bite.”

Every one is made right on the
premises and the sausages are com-
pletely additive-free, to boot.

Keep some in the freezer ({ do),
and 2 great supper is at hand ata
moment's notice. »
