I put up a post on the forum titled "Hot dogs ain't hotdogs without kraut" if you want a link to the directions. We had kraut again tonight. Are we sick or what??

Mary Beth...I was on the synthetic thyroid meds for about a year-and it did NOT do a dang thing. So I made it a point to ask for Armour Thyroid then Dr. kept adjusting the dosage when after many, many months of going in every time I needed a refill and we were right back to where we started from I told her enough! Now I am on the dosage I think works best for me and now I feel energy like I have haven't felt in over 25 years. It's an incredible feeling when a woman takes charge of her own health with informed decisions-Maybe I just had to reach this age to finally become vocal about issues concerning me, myself and I--Whew...sorry for the rant!
Oh...I picked up some sauerkraut this evening-Guess what we are having while DH is up at deer camp? LOL!
Melody, thanks for sharing that because my endocrinologist is having a cow that the naturopath has me on Armour Thyro and not the synthetic. I figure, why mess with what works?? Plus, the endocrinologist had me on 4 times the amount that I am on now and it was my other doctor's turn to have a cow. She said that I could have gone into cardiac arrest. She started me low and each month increases a little more. We got too high last month and so I have backed off a little. I so appreciate her approach and don't think I'll be going back to the specialist!!
I just started cooking my pumpkins today and that will get frozen in cubes. After I get that all done then maybe I'll make some pumpkin butter. That sauerkraut looks SO GOOD! I've tasted homemade sauerkraut done the "crock" way by an old Czech lady in the town I used to live in. Nothing compares to it! YUMMO!

Sandra, I haven't done pumpkin for a very long time. I do not like pumpkin pie and so my poor husband only gets it at Thanksgiving and I like Zuchinni bread better than pumpkin bread. I know. I know. It's all about me!! :-)
MsDoolittle, and Kraut crazy you say? It just means that we have a little vinegar in us!!! :-)
