My friend Desiree decided we should have a little get-together to celebrate Oktoberfest today (she's good about coming up with things like this -- in July we celebrated Belgian Independence day by making Belgian dishes and drinking beer), so I grabbed my 'old lady' cart and walked over to Harris-Teeter to pick up the ingredients I needed for a bratwurst, sauerkraut, apple, and onion dish I found on epicurious.
I don't drive anymore and the old lady cart makes hauling the groceries home a lot easier. There really isn't much need for a car in this area. I can get pretty much everywhere I need to go either by walking or taking Metro, so about 9 years ago I sold my Jeep and then a couple years later I just let my license expire. People tend to look at you like you're the Unabomber or something when you tell them you don't have a driver's license, though. You might as well tell them you're from another planet.
It was my first time making this dish and it turned out to be pretty tasty. Here's the link to the recipe in case you'd like to try it. I took the advice of a couple of the commenters though and doubled the amount of bratwurst and used whole wheat flour instead of wondra, which I'd never heard of before and which the 'Teet' didn't carry.
