Dill Pickles, or, Why I am Lame

Check it out, We made pickles this weekend

Anyways, before you all are allowed to post the obvious "yes, jeremie, you are lame" reply, I will write a bit to allow some time for everyone to think of a more creative response.

First, Becky and I have been meaning to check out the san francisco farmers markets for a while - But without a reason to go, what is the point?

Skip ahead... I miss my mom's dill pickles she makes every year and they aren't that hard to make - Cucumbers, Vinegar, Dill, Garlic, Salt, Jars, BOOYAH, you have dill pickles.

The trick to hand crafting these specialties is the fact that you can't use the crappy dill spice you get at the store. The ones you use to really get the good flavor have to have flowers and shit. This dill spice is big and fluffy, like a few feet long. So there was our reason to go searching farmers markets.

Becky found a great one online, an old school market with real family grown foods. The place was great - Becky bought two orchids for ten bucks, we bought a crapload of this dill stuff for a buck fifty... 8 heads of fresh california garlic for a buck. Anyway, we came home, cleaned it all, stuffed it in jars and had the rest of the day to do nothing. Totally rad.

Oh, did I mention I made strawberry jam last weekend?

I am a domestic girl. Sorry, I am lame. Flame away.

The highest good, then, after the attainment of which the whole of rational nature is seeking, which is also called the end of all blessings, is defined by many philosophers as follows: The highest good, they say, is to become as like to God as possible. by free online poker
