Dilly Beans are a summer staple. Why not make a quick pickle of them for a delicious and easy treat?
Since my hubbie passed away I have not been posting as much stuff on my blog. There are a lot of stuff to do around the house now that he is gone and unfortunately my priorities have shifted. At least until now. It seems that I am caught up, well as caught up as I can under the circumstances.
I am a part of this year long challenge of canning. Each month Food in Jars has a theme and we try to create it with our own spin on things. We try to do a challenge each month. Unfortunately I missed a month because I just was not feeling it. Actually I missed other stuff, but that is another conversation for another time. Anyway, we have a Facebook group and everything. This months challenge is quick pickles. Goodness knows I love me some pickles. I love just about everything pickled.
