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?
Happily ... after retirement 
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!
