| Love it! |
Needless to say I did NOT wait until now to open it. I waited until my birthday. Really. My dear sisters gave me the only present I wanted -- a Lehman's Large Wooden Sauerkraut Stomper! I am so glad they humor me. And so is my neighbor, who is still trying to get the blueberry stains out of his. He did say he didn't mind, but he looked a little pale when I gave it back to him last fall....

My first thought was not to piss you off or you'd bean me over the head with that.
Hahhahaha....don't ya hate borrowing things and returning them, um, colored?
Have fun. And that could also be useful for burglars.
Ha ha ha!
Oh, that looks MUCH easier than punching the cabbage with my fist inside a five-gallon bucket!!!
My first thought was that it was a new-fangled plunger for the loo. (Sorry.) Girl, how much sauerkraut do you make at a time? And how big a vat do you stomp it in?? That thing looks to be three feet tall!
That's right, Tami ... watch your step.... :)
Sue - It certainly got the cats' attention.
Kristina - :)
Michelle - You better believe it! I have used my fist, my meat tenderizer, then, finally, my poor neighbor's stomper. It is perfect for making kraut in a 5 gallon bucket!
Mama Pea - I like to be able to get some force behind my stomping, obviously. It is three feet tall! I make my kraut in a five gallon bucket and it works perfectly.
My sister and I were just talking about how we cannot find sauerkraut that tastes like Mom's. Our job was using a clean hammer handle to pack it in jars. Not much was added, little sugar, little salt and very little water. It fermented in it's own juices...mmmmmm.
What a wonderful gift.
i looked at that when i was at lehman's but i just don't make much sauerkraut. maybe one of these days.
Very nice weapon! And Sue, I think you must have borrowed something from me when you visited last fall - whatever it was, bring it back come spring, please!
Was the neighbor pale blue:) Ok I am just too funny of late but its time to be thinking of putting up more food. That is such an awesome stomper. I used the pusher from my vitorrio food strainer...then the wooden tire mallet Ralph had in the big truck...[the spare one he had not used]. You lucky girl you!
