* Put a batch of bread in the bread machine, which did NOT come out looking like a cartoon character
* Pickled two double-batches of cucumbers after harvesting these last night
which was only 4 DAYS after picking the last batch of cucumbers. It's really a good thing that they're so prolific as the pickles from the botched attempt at the whole 12-quarts-at-once experiment did indeed come out a bit mushy. They taste fine, but not what I would hope for. There are two recipes here--one with a little sugar & mustard seed & one the standard dill that I've been using. Neither of us like sweet pickles or "bread and butter" pickles, but theoretically these just take a bit of the "pucker" out of a traditional dill. We'll find out in two to three weeks!* Made a chicken, mushroom, garlic (of course) pizza for lunch
and am now in serious need of a nap!We would DEFINITELY be having takeout tonight if it were legal.....
