X2 Bob!!!
Thanks! I think they had just come from the garden...It’s definitely lush green grass(and weeds)around here.How thoughtful of you to plant all that pretty grass for the deer DMC!
Cool pictures, thanks!
It is also quite scary the first time you see a cat cough up a fur ball...and gross....Yep, George is very load when he does it!
Thought he was chocking the first time he did it...scared the begeeous outta me!
Yes! You can often find canning cukes for a good price and they make the best picklesI kind of missed the whole pickle conversation.... When I had a CSA, I told the farmer I was looking for canning cuke's (not the pretty ones) and got a couple bushels for like $5 per bushel... I made sweet pickles, b&b pickles and dill. Dill pickles are a challenge. The best are fermented, but don't can well... I also made sweet jalapeno relish and jelly. Still haven't figured out how to make good pickled jalapeno's (like popeye's). One day I'll figure it out.
ETA: Morning all
Sean, how did your DR visit go?
Rose bush predators!

Re: pickles...give me DILL! You all can have the sweet ones. I've never tried making any. @pertnear09 you gave me a chuckle with the "kerosene pickles" reference
Blooie, DMC is right, that looks like a gorgeous place where Kendra's photo was taken. Hope she had more fun than getting her picture looked like!
Bob, how's the new job treating you?
Sean, good to have you back online! How are you getting along?
DMC, if you get tired of that rain, feel free to send it my way!
You are definitely getting more rain that we are DMC, grass hasn't looked like that since a month ago.
At least she doesn't look upset
Ah, so you HAVE had pickles before. Can't say I'd be looking to buy any based on fast food quality. Wouldn't buy a tomato or cheese or much of anything else either! WAY back when I was a kid you used to be able to get massive (and good) dill pickles at the fort on Tom Sawyer's Island at Disneyland. Don't know about now.
What makes them different?
Same here Debbie!
We knew you were a smart man Rob. The dumb ones are the "leaders" who decide they have to "make their mark" to "justify" their assignment by changing things before they understand anything about the business at hand.
The company annual picnic is this afternoon. Since they give away free meals to anyone that wants one, that means I get to close the restaurant at 2pm today!
I'll be making up for it though tomorrow when we have a big tournament for about 65-70 people...that day's going to start early with me cooking breakfast for everyoneFirst thing to do that day? Get that huge coffee urn going!
@bruceha2000 don't know about the giant pickles at Disneyland but when we were kids, our favorite movie treat was their humongous dills available at the snack bar. If you ate it slowly enough, it would last almost through the entire movie.
