You’re making me hungry for PICKLES!
Tipper: They are already looking good and crunchy.
Those are looking yummy! I haven’t made pickles in a few years, maybe next year.
ok those look really really good, i would say really, really really good but that would be annoying!
You have really got my curiosity intrigued. And my taste buds at attention.
Oh, these are coming right along! I sure hope I can make some next year. I have a total of one cucumber growing in my garden, LOL! I do have a couple of lemon cucmbers, but I’ve never tried them in these type of pickles.
