PICKLING PICKLES

WE LOVE PICKLES YUM YUM YUM

The kitchen was bustling with activity. A small mountain of cucumbers, peeled garlic cloves, the smell of dill in the air, and a simmering pot of a mysterious vinegar mixture was all the evidence one would need to know that it was PICKLING TIME! 



This would be the first batch of pickles ever made in the Place Under The Pine.
Everything seemed to be in order - dill & garlic were placed into a jar.


Then cucumbers crammed in.


The special mixture of vinegar, salt, and secret ingredients was added and the jars were given a hot bath to seal them shut.


The end product looks amazing, the process smelled amazing, therefore, they should be amazing pickles. Only time will tell - three weeks to be exact.
