Sauerkraut. My family has made sauerkraut for generations. In the earlier generations the men were the ones who did most of the work, slicing and pounding the cabbage. Now I carry on the tradition, even though I am a woman. Now my grown children, their families and special friends join me each fall for a Kraut Day. I have photos of my grandchildren who have tottered over to the large (#10) crock and peer into the crock. The tradition will go on. Debra Arrivee
