She was really a very sweet woman, though. She was the only one in her entire, huge family (11 children plus parents IIRC) who survived the Holocaust.

Did she survive the camps or with help from someone?

She was the youngest, and her parents pooled whatever little money they had and got her out of Poland or Hungary or wherever they were (can't recall right now). the rest of the family ended up in the camps and perished.
Wow!
Even all these decades later, such stories just move me beyond words.

Indeed.

The doctor prescribed a new type of lancet to take my blood sugar with. Walgreens forgot to apply the insurance discount and charged me $112. They had to ring up a refund because I was only supposed to pay $35. It just makes me hate the power of insurance companies even more. These are not necessarily prescription items, so you can know that the price is even higher for those just buying them off the shelf.

OK... Time to power down.

Laters...

Power down? I hope you aren't the pilot!

You have the photo you posted on your brain.

No! There is absolutely nothing on my brain!

That reminds me of something one of the kids posted on FB that made me laugh

"I can't brain today, I have the dumb"

Both sound pretty good. Two hours to bake? At what temperature?

vixmom · « **Reply #166 on:** January 20, 2012, 07:46:07 PM »

375 --- but the last few times I actually cooked it in a skillet on the stove top

It's baking at 350 degrees. I was talking with a friend earlier and she wanted to add caraway, too. And she wanted sweet potatoes in there. The original recipe calls for potatoes, but I can't have those. Nor sweet potatoes.

Am watching an early Hitchcock called "Young and Innocent." Based on a Josephine Tey novel. It's a lot of fun.

The meat cooked in 90 minutes, according to the thermometer. So, it's suppa-suppa-suppa-time, as Snoopy would sing.

Do you rinse the sauerkraut first before baking?
