Made pickles

The Wif asked me to go to Costco yesterday. I thought that meant I should get a three pack of cucumbers. This plus getting a four pack of jars and some spices for making pickles, meant it was pickle time.

We everything went well plus or minus. The Wif had gone to the store previously, so I got the wild hair and dug in. I boiled brine; I cut cucumbers; I boiled water in my retired brew kettle. She came home and asked if I sanitized the jars…

Stop the brine boiling, and add water to the kettle so I can submerge the jars. Half an hour or so I was back on track.

All said, I ended up with only enough brine for three of the four jars, so I after the fourth jars worth. All three jars had the deal pop down, so in a few weeks, I should have pickles.

Made pizza

Using this recipe, made dinner tonight.  Next time I need to spread the dough a little thinner and cook at a higher temperature (due to our stove).  The nice thing is there was no rising time, so I was able to make the dough while the oven was heating.
