The book continues to talk about how the family would make sausage together and how they cooked it. It also talks about the smells that accompanied the sausage. The smell would bring back memories from the past and events that were not even present in the room with her. It reminds of things that I smell that take me back to memories and events that occurred when that smell was lingering around. For example when I smell any scent of vanilla it reminds me of my grandparents house, because whenever we go over there my grandma is always burning a vanilla bean candle. That scent just brings up happy emotions for me even though nothing in the room is causing that other than the scent.On that note I am very excited to see how the book plays out from here!

I also wrote about the onion. It will be interesting to see if that is something that stays throughout the book -- since we all made comments / connects to it.
