Sweet-Sour Red Cabbage!

You're going to need:

* 1 head of red cabbage
* 4 slices of bacon cut into small pieces, but have some more on the side
* 2 tbsp. brown sugar
* 2 tbsp. of flour
* 3 cups of water
* One-third-of-a-cup of vinegar
* Salt
* Pepper to taste
* One small onion sliced up

Cook your cabbage in a covered pan with two cups of salted water, using about 1 tsp. of salt for at least 5 minutes, maybe closer to 8 minutes. Keep an eye on it. You want your cabbage crisp but tender. Drain that off. Fry up your bacon bits. Remove the bacon and about half of the fat. Add your sugar and flour to pan with the fat and stir everything together. Add about one-half-of-a-cup of water, and keep some water handy on the side. Add your vinegar, seasonings to your taste, and the onion slices and cook for about 5 minutes. Everything should be thick. Cook a little longer if it isn't. Add your bacon and cabbage in. Heat so that everything is warm. You may need a bit of water here. You can add more bacon bits as a garnish if needed.
