Wings As Eagles: Pickles and more pickles

Pickles and more pickles

The other day Jena canned 11 jars of pickles using Grandma's recipe. Jena had received two huge boxes of cucumbers from someone at work and decided to try canning them.

They were in the garage 24 hours and last night I brought a couple jars in to stick in the refridgerator. I was anticipating yummy pickles this morning. Perhaps not a typical breakfast, but the right kind of pickles are good at any time during the day. :)

The jar was open, so I knew Jena had eaten some this morning before going to work at 6am. They maybe weren't quite like Grandma's, but pretty close! She used a different variety of cucumbers than Grandma did, so that may be the little bit of difference in flavor.

11 jars should last us several weeks, unless Krissa decides to get her fill of pickles in before she goes back to school on Thursday. They don't have pickles at BJU, so she eats plenty when she comes home.
