October!

October is always full of perils for me. So... I usually dread it. This October is no different. If I can just make it through this month I know I will last the rest of the year. Every October some one gets sick, the car brakes down, some one gets mad at me, the house falls apart, doom, destruction and more.
 Just in case I got the cars looked at.  Don't know why but usually the car brakes down. Actually my brakes were pretty bad and the solenoids had to get replaced too. And  Husbands truck had something wrong with the cooling sensor so every time he went to start the old thing, it flooded and would not start. If my car had broke down, we would have really been in a pickle. So we headed that off, because for sure I was doomed. I gambled that it would be cheaper to get the work done than risk getting in an accident because of brake failure. But now I'm a little strapped for cash which is not good cause my pay is destined to take a hit soon. But that's life one minute your on top of the world, the next, bam, something slaps you right in the face and knocks you back down. Just cause it always happens to me in October doesn't mean that it's that weird. I figure as long as I keep getting back up I'm OK. And after October things always seem to turn around.



So we decided to start the month with a real German dinner. You know October fest.  Plum glazed sausages, boiled red potatoes, and blaukraut. I plan to post the sausage recipe on the recipe site.
It was something new that we had never made before I liked it but the kid thought it was too sweet for sausage and the husband disliked it completely. I think it would have been good if the sausages were bar-b-qued. The blau kraut was really good and the recipe was posted in a previous post to the recipe site.
 I hope every one hangs in there and makes it through October or at least until candy day. Cause with a sack full of candy who cares what problems you've got.
