Late night kraut

I decided not to go to Fermentation Friday this week because I really needed to do the overflowing stacks of dishes and my homework before getting up early to go to school. But funnily enough just before bed, overtired and needing to dream, I found myself slicing cabbage for a late night kraut. I salted it, covered with a plate and weighed it down with my mortar and pestle. I'll pack it into a jar when I wake before I run off to learn things. Fermenting on Friday now seems to have taken on automatic function. It will be interesting to see if I prepare anything else in my sleep.
How good are these cabbage spirals?
