So, the pickles actually turned out pretty delicious! I sent a jar home with my bestie friday, and she just took her 2nd jar. Since last night...I have eaten a whole jar. I blame the fact that I am pregnant! They go really well with cheetos, and with grilled cheese. or buffalo chicken sandwiches. the possibilities are ENDLESS! I also managed to make these without making anything explode, catch fire, or giving myself serious burns.
My mom and mimi are mildly surprised that I took up canning. But hey, its cheaper than buying enough pickles to satisfy my pregnant cravings! Now I want a damn garden. I told them they can be surprised when my sister starts doing shit like this. THAT will be reason for celebration! ;)
It actually has been quite relaxing doing this stuff. I have been chopping up fruits and veggies and freezing them to go in the kids lunches or just keep them good longer, so this was the obvious next step. I like being a cheap ass in this regard! ;) Why pay $4 at the store for something I can make for less than $2 here?
Kinda boring tonight, as far as my blogs go. But it works for me. Time to get the heathen children to bed and get ready for another week of madness! woohoo!
