Recipe’s Story: Anecdote (Three to Five Sentences)

As a teenager I can still remember this family Christmas Party.  We are at my Aunt Gail and Uncle Billy’s house in Garfield Heights, Ohio and the Waikiki Meatballs were on the buffet table with many other great family dishes.  The sweet smell of these wafted from the crockpot as we walked by to fill our plates and enjoy another great family Christmas party.  Yum!
