Pickles
Pickle....To be in a pickle? or just to be a pickle? or To make Pickles is the question!
Did you know that to be a pickle means to be put into a tight area or circumstance. Think of a jar of pickles, sweet, dill or bread & butter...they are squeezed into jars, submerged in a brine and left to age. Humm sounds like the ol' saying "I'm in a pickle" doesn't it.
All jokes aside Pickles are tasty and easy for the preserver to make. Yet with the fast paced life we live in this amazing treat is left to the big commercial canners...One common thing...Commercial pickles all taste the same, look pretty much the same and have no story to tell.
Homemade pickles are healthy, easy and such a fun treat for all ages. In our family we have Grannies recipe, tried true and O' so tasty...Yes you got to wait 30 days or more to open those jars, but once opened the jar is empty in no time....Those same size jars from the store will sit in your fridge for months before they are empty...Do you know why?
