menu request

 My son and his family are going to spend New Year's Day with me, assuming we are all well and stay carefully spaced, and my son has told me that we must have sauerkraut.  It seems he didn't have any last January 1, and we know how this year turned out.  So I bought a jar at Kroger's today/  Now I need to decide how to cook it.  We have two family traditions.  My step-mom drained it, stirred in some fried polish sausage and baked it, then served it over mashed potatoes.  My mother-in-law drained it thoroughly and fried it in lots of butter and brown sugar. Sounds weird but it's really good.  This can also be served over mashed potatoes.  I like sauerkraut so either way tastes good to me.  Decisions, decisions.  One way or the other we will have sauerkraut on New Year's Day.  We really don't need another year like 2020.
