Lime Pickles/Tasty Thursday

This last weekend when all of Sedalia turned out for the Missouri State Fair,

 including my daughter who brought me some of this,

 

I was here at home making a 3-day batch of

Lime Pickles.

Now you can use the recipe on the back of this package.

And I'm sure it's a good one.

But,

I have been blessed to have Grandma Hunter's recipe.

So time for some old-fashioned goodness on this Tasty Thursday.

Here's the Day 2 Soak.

And, yes, I had Plenty of cucumbers from my own garden.

Eleven pints to be exact.

With more to come,

I will definitely be in a Pickle.

Not the greatest joke, sorry.

 

 

 

 

 

A Taste of Summer

There's a recipe from my Grandma Hunter that we Love, Love, Love around here.

You won't find it here........

It takes 3 days to prepare before you can preserve it with canning.

When you have 10 children runnin' around your house 5 of those days, you must be creative with your time.

Only 10 minutes left (unless you use Quart-size jars. Then it's 15)

In case you hadn't guessed, what we have here are Lime Pickles. Thanks to my mother for sharing her abundance of cucumbers! And again thanks to my Grandma for passing down her recipe for me to share with my younger generation. It is most definitely a keeper. :)

Oh! and by the way, grandma's in that pic you see up above in my blog heading !! Maybe I got my time creativeness from her??
