Slaughter of the Exploding Cabbage

It exploded so I had to make sauerkraut= cabbage, sea salt, water.
There was cabbage left over so we (middle monkey and I) made coleslaw= cabbage, celery, carrot, lemon juice, olive oil, sugar, a little salt, celery seed. Very Very good.

They have no idea what is coming.

  1. OMG, Deb! What a photo!!! Slaughter, indeed. And what *is* that blue thing?!!! But the coleslaw sounds wonderful--I'll have to try it that way. And of course I loved the second caption. Great post!

  3. The blue thing is an antique juicer. You put your lemon, lime, orange, or grapefruit half over the top of it and spin it til all the juice is out. I'll take another picture soon. I collect antique cobalt blue glass gadgets.

  4. Debbie .. I just had a peek ? at "stuff on my cat" .. wow ! I haven't seen that site before ! .. I'm going to pass it on to my girlfriends who have cats (most of them do !)
    You know .. I thought it was a juicer .. but wasn't sure .. I love the colour ! .. I would collect that blue too (I tried to gather as much Delft as I could in Holland) .. my kitchen has a pale buttery yellow , so blue is a pretty accent colour.
    And having different sized gazing balls would be great ! .. I think having only one for now makes me a nervous mom ? LOL .. so naturally I need more to get over that ? LOL

  5. I think the different sized "gazing balls" are actually fish net floats.

  6. Hey! You made cole slaw--yum!! I make mine with mayo and celery seed if I'm making the white kind as we call it down here. I love cobalt blue too. Now that make sense about those fish net floaters.

  7. Glad you woke up. Hope your head feels better. I found the fish floats at my grandparents house in Waco. I am still trying to get off about 20 to 24 lbs. Mayo a no no, but it is yummy.

  8. VP. The Saurkraut started to bubble last night and the slaw is almost gone. Those other three cabbages are doomed.

  9. Oh great! Now someone is probably going to go out and start a chapter of the "Condemn Cruelty Against Cabbages Coalition" or CCACC for short. But it sure won't be us! We're laughing too hard!

  10. Oh crap. I have offended the CCACC group. I am going to get vegetable juice thrown on my organically grown jeans. I need a hide out. Somebody save me.
