I have one of those little skillets too… LOVE IT! The egg fits perfectly on a bagel, English muffin or piece of toast. Someone gave it to me to use as a spoon rest. I put it to much better use

I too am a fan of cast iron cookware. I have the cutest little skillet that makes perfect fried eggs. Yum! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Will give it a try this week.

I wrote a post about straw bale gardening, but never got around to trying it. Hey! I DO have an extra bale of straw. Might be worth a shot! Thanks for the link.

The title of this post immediately caught my attention. I am trying hay bale gardening this year, planting directly into a hay bale after preparing it to rot. If interested, check out strawbalegardening.com.

Oh, and the other reason she’s so great is she says to CUT UP the Sauerkraut. I made Sauerkraut chocolate cake once from a recipe that didn’t suggest that – and my guests nearly threw up when they started pulling the long strings out of their mouths… eeewww! Getting back on the horse after ten years…

That’s a good enough reason for me! Enjoy the cake

This is wonderful, thank you SO much! God bless your grandma for keepin’ it real. Of all the Sauerkraut cake recipes out there I know this is the one to try – if for no other reason than MY grandmother’s last name was Baumgardner!

You left out the part about the “salad spinner” resting. They might need it after slinging around their giant lettuce burrito.

Just kiddin’. I think this is a great idea. I like the tip about picking the lettuce within an hour of eating to get the best flavor. I don’t think people necessarily think about the fresh factor.

A space saver that is cost effective and fun. Who wouldn’t love this idea?!
