Stories from the hills of Western Maine

'twas the night before christmas.....
Christmas Eve with my family.
We'll bake today, wrap presents and miss Ethan and Sara.
We always enjoy sausage balls and cinnamon rolls for breakfast on Christmas morning. This year I think that I will use Amber's recipe for monkey bread to go with the sausage balls. The sausage balls are a favorite in middle-Tennessee where I lived twenty years ago. Middle Tennessee is one of the places that I call "home" whenever anyone asks where I'm from and the foods from that area are the foods that we have carried with us as we moved about the country and which are part of our lives here in Maine.
These are simple to make but don't tell anyone--they are too good to be so simple.
Sausage Cheese Balls
1 lb. sausage
1 lb. extra sharp Cheddar cheese, grated
3 cups biscuit
Mix ingredients well. Drop by tsp. on ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

Oh, is there anything better than those sausage balls just out of the oven? :c) Wishing you and yours a joyous Christmas Beth!
Yum, yum. Merry Christmas. Looks frosty up there. Glad you had a full larder. Pappy
I think those sausage balls are a favorite all over the south. Every young girl's first attempt at hot appetizers.
Merry Christmas.
Your Christmas sounds cozy and delicious!
Merry Christmas!
Mmmm, I think we have a new recipe to bring to Christmas tomorrow. Sound delish!
I've been meaning to tell you that I love the colors and angles in the red and white house picture in this post. June
