Adoption Journal Update - Your weekend update

Mary from Heart of Adoptions teases me because Keely and I preserve veggies, raise honey bees, and make cider and jam.  She says we’re “crunchy”.  Our daughter, Carly says the same thing.   So in keeping with that theme on Saturday we decided to put the meat grinder attachment on our Kitchen Aid mixer and make our own Brats – Yum!  We bought casing from a German deli and used pork shoulder, lamb shank, herbs and spices and made 20 brats.  We served some for dinner that night.  Our kids thought they taste better than the ones you buy in the store.  What a great way to spend a cold winter afternoon with my wife.
