Sauerkraut is acceptable only on a Reuben. Other than that, it is an abomination.

Stooopit mainframe apparently has a Friday Afternoon detector as it’s already knocked off early for the weekend.

I agree with the Ursine One on that subject. ICK!!!

Home from irk, dreading Monday, with supervisor having his normal day off, lead on vacation, and sweet capable assistant lead having been transferred to another department. This leaves us with Drama Diva assistant lead (who claims to not WANT to be a lead, but sure enjoys bossing everyone around. I think she just doesn’t want to be responsible for the results) and Princess Instant Expert (who thought she knew everything about the job in ONE WEEK, and now thinks SHE’S a lead, which she is NOT), plus Ms. Anger Non-Management, and other annoyances. Much chocolate will be needed.

We shall now retire to the bedroom to watch teevee etc until sleepy time. I get to go mow over to the church house tomorrow mornin’ so I need to be all rested up to sit on my butt on a lawnmower for a couple of hours.

**BigKitty** except for a Reuben sauerkraut does not like me. If’n I eat it any other way the results are very explosive, loud, and stinky.

Nitey Nite Y’all!

I am ashamed to admit…

Sauerkraut Anonymous.

Hello, my name is Carnivorousplant, and being married to a Yankee, I came to like…_shudder_…sauerkraut on hotdogs.

Sauerkraut is weird for me.

I like stuff cooked in sauerkraut but I don’t like sauerkraut.  
Except every now and the I get a craving, but I can’t eat it by itself. There has to be some pork or something on the fork with it.

The Eastern European side of the family eats sauerkraut soup.  
I’m more than happy to give somebody else my share.
