cabbage

When I was in Brownies they kept us busy learning semophore. We could send signals from one end of the church hall to the other. The first seven letters were the easiest, and the longest word we could send was "cabbage". It somewhat limited our communication.
They made cabbage rolls for the church bazaar and presented me with the leftovers, which means the tight inner heads as they only use the outer leaves. I am now working on several cabbage recipes. This cabbage and the carrots were being softened for cabbage "au gratin", which really was delicious. It looks like I have enough cabbage for the winter even if I eat it every day.

Oh, yum! That looks so wonderfully inviting.

Do you add celery seed? Or carefully diced spicy peppers? A dash of vinegar (just a dash) in either case, I think.

You inspire me.
