Easter Dinner Traditions
Did you know that kielbasa and smoked sausage are traditional parts of many Polish, Czech, Slovak and Ukrainian Easter dinners.
I found this out 20+ years ago when I went to my first Easter dinner with my husband’s family. I was used to ham, lasagna, lots of meatballs and wedding soup but, there in front of me was sausage, pirogies, paska bread, hrutka and (thank goodness) ham. In my family we ate kielbasa and sausage but not for Easter dinner, we ate pirogies, but the were out of...

Homemade Jam
I love to make homemade jam for the holidays, and everyone enjoys receiving it. I did not make it last year and everyone was waiting for it! OOPS! If you have never made jam before, trust me it is not as complicated as it sounds, it is actually pretty easy to do but it is time consuming and can get expensive.
Here we go!

Some things you need before you start:
Jars – I like to use pint jars and give everyone a variety of different flavors instead of large...
