Some of you might remember that eight weeks ago to the day I made pickles. And today I could finally open them! Well, I'd like to report, while a little stronger than I expected, they are pretty good. A little crunchy, not soggy, which is good. :) Jon said they tasted like pickles, so I guess that's good. I've given them to one other person, and we'll see what she says before I really give my verdict.
Update: Okay, we have a verdict. The pickles are good, but very strong. :) The suggestion was to put more pickles into each jar. I think this goes to show that patience is actually not a virtue when it comes to pickling, and I should have just eaten them the day I made them!

I like pickles! Bring me some!
ReplyDeleteyou should just throw them away...gross!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, well, Cliff, TOO BAD! Your wife loves me, and she wants pickles, so they're comin' to your house whether you like it or not!!
ReplyDeleteOk, so now that the pickels are over with can we come up with a project that I will actually like? How about, jams or jellies, or cotton candy? OOOooo! I got it! Fudge!!! I LOVE fudge! Peanut Butter or Chocolate or both together! That's my vote.
ReplyDeleteI can't control my whims! That's why they're called whims! But I'll try to subconsiously think "chocolate peanut butter fudge, chocolate peanut butter fudge..." and maybe magic will happen.
ReplyDeleteI think Jon would appreciate that sort of whim as well.
I've got a recipe for chocolate peanut butter fudge. Didn't I make some for Jon one time? All I remember, is it was super sweet! Oh, but yummy. Fudge reminds me of the holidays...which are just around the corner!
ReplyDeleteYummy pickles! I definitely want some! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the pickles. They are yummy! John doesn't like my pickle breath though! Ha ha. :-)
