Good Lord, Mo -- you two are an industrious couple!

I have to confess that dinner time came and without any other thought than
getting it onto the table, I put some Eden (organic) sauerkraut (the first
time I've used) in a pot and added a few slices of the pork to heat. As I'm
not a meat-eater and need loads and loads of spice to eat it, generally, DH
ate it and loved it. I couldn't bring myself but to taste about 1/2
teaspoon of the sauerkraut.

Luckily we had some (organic) rutabaga (yay! not waxed for a change) and
used some Icelandic butter on it; I ate some cheese and an apple and we are
both satisfied for the evening.

Thanks for sharing your pork/tamale/cheesecake cookfest -- only in my
dreams!
