To Dawn in Cape Cod (Sandwich) MA. This is Becky in TX. I am the one from Lancaster Co. PA. When I was about 12 years old we went to Sandwich, MA to visit the historic Nye House. My maiden name is Nye. We went all over Cape Cod, but Sandwich was our destination. It's gorgeous! I would love to visit again someday. Here is a recipe for a simple PA Dutch meal that my family loves & I have been enjoying since I was a little girl.

Sausage and Creamed Potatoes
1 lb. ground sausage (if you cannot find ground, seasoned sausage, use the breakfast type ground sausage)
1 medium onion
6 to 8 potatoes
2 Tbls. flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 c. milk (preferably whole milk)

Chop onion fine. Mix meat & onion, fry until slightly brown ( do not cook thoroughly, it will cook fully after water is added). Add water to just cover meat & cook on medium heat for 10 minutes. Cut potatoes in quarters, add to meat, then add seasonings. Cover & cook until potatoes are done. Make a paste of the flour and milk. Add paste to meat and potatoes and cook until thickened, stirring constantly.
I sometimes add carrots with the potatoes for a change. All of my 4 young children love this meal!
I usually double it for our family of 6.
