Last week’s haul included a head of red cabbage. Jennifer immediately suggested sauerkraut and brats. A little later that week I hit the grocery store and got the ingredients. I used the recipe straight from the tdwilley site– and it was tasty.
Jennifer appreciated the sauerkraut the first night, but wanted the pure meat flavor with much less bread and no sauerkraut. Just beyond the plate is Wings of War, a new game to us. It’s a neat game of World War I dogfights. We thoroughly enjoy one-on-one duels so far, and are just about to test the waters flying multiple planes apiece. Something tells me that’ll keep us busy…
On Wednesday, we went to our designated pickup place and returned our old waxed box and picked up a new box full of food. This week’s haul included Swiss chard, Yukon gold potatoes, Nantes carrots, a big leek, a head of Irish white cabbage, 4 baby artichokes, and leaf lettuce. From other farms they tossed in a grapefruit and two pippin apples.

Ok.. that looks even better than the cake. I am getting jealous! I love Bratwurst but my better half won’t give it a try.
We will have to play Wings of War for sure. The old Red Baron computer game was one of my favorites.
Do the various planes have different characteristics?
Yes. They handle the different characteristics in an interesting way– different planes have different damage capacity and maneuver decks. Each maneuver deck has 12-20 cards (or so) in it– with different cards in different decks.
I was flying a German Fokker Dr.I, which had a larger maneuverability deck (20 cards), but could only take 13 damage. Jennifer flew a Sopwith Camel, which could take 15 damage, but couldn’t turn as tightly. That mattered when the edge of the table loomed…
Awesome. That sounds really fun. I’ll bet the Spad takes a lot of punishment.
