Cucumbers to Pickles

One day of friends over to swim + major 'put together' project + two days of rain, lots of rain, + hot humid weather= No time in the garden.
Which means the garden is most likely turning into a jungle.
I'm a little scared to go out.
But today is the day.

I'm sure we'll have more of these to can. However, I'm not sure how many more I can take.


We've already done 40 jars. Sadly, that won't even last us half of the year. My kids go crazy over pickles.
Here is our favorite recipe.
I tried a new pickle recipe this year. It's an old fashioned pickling one. I'll share it soon.
Now, I'm off to the garden.

Our recipes are very similar!! We only add garlic and dill though. Isn't it so nice to have your garden last year-round?

Hope you're having a great day!
