Midnight smooth pickle snack at 8:30

This is my first attempt at posting from the WordPress app on my iPhone. I haven’t heard great things about it but here goes. I was laying in bed, watching football and reading magazines and I got a hankering for some of my recently created Sweet & Spicy Smooth Pickles sooooooo……I created my first Sweet & Spicy Smooth Pickles wrap. It’s a tortilla with cream cheese spread on it and about 10-12 Sweet & Spicy Smooth Pickles. It was pretty good but now my stomach kinda hurts. Guess I better get some TUMS.

Be ready for the Sweet & Spicy Smooth Pickles recipe. I’ll post it tomorrow.

A Pickle Drop?

As I was sitting on the couch trying to recover from the last few days of celebrations I heard something on the CBS Sunday Morning show that caught my attention…..there is a town in North Carolina…..Mt. Olive-home of the Mt. Olive pickle company….that drops a pickle for New Year’s Eve.  So instead of a bright shiny ball they use a glowing dill pickle.  Check it out: http://www.mtolivepickles.com/news/whats-new

A quick internet search was done and I found there is also a Mr. and Mrs. Pickle drop for New Year’s Eve in Dillsburg, PA: http://www.carrollcitizens.com/PickleDrop.html

I think there could be a destination New Years Eve party in store for smoothpickles next year!!

Save the pickles!!

With the impending storm heading my way and the sirens going off here on New Year’s Eve, I decided to take shelter in the basement with my dog.  As I was heading downstairs, I noticed my 5 gallon bucket of smooth pickles just sitting there…..so I made the quick decision to grab it on the way downstairs……I had to save the pickles!!!  We are now all safe and sound!  Happy New Year to all!!!!

Smooth pickles – eat fresh!

I asked for smooth pickles on my 6 inch turkey sub on wheat tonight even though I didn’t need them.  I mean really…..I have a 5 gallon bucket of them sitting in my kitchen!  So I ate about 20 of my smooth pickles on the side, dipping them in mustard and Syberg’s hot wing sauce.  Kind of like they were chips or carrots or cucumbers. (Note: it was pointed out to me that pickles ARE cucumbers. While this may be true I want to point out that cucumbers are not pickles.)

Back to the pickle

Tonight we watched Back to the Future III, which I don’t think I have ever seen all the way thru, while I ate a veggie burger with about 20 smooth pickles.  I know the smooth pickles are the same as the ones with ridges but I’m telling you they just taste different!  They make a burger or a sandwich!

Still haven’t watched all of BTTF III….just couldn’t finish it.

More pickles?

I went to the store tonight and guess what I bought…….more pickles!  Yeah I know I have a problem.  But I was out of mini pickles and I wanted some.  So tonight for dinner I ate about 15 smooth pickles, chopped up on a salad like cucumbers.  Not bad.

Smooth Pickles

My husband bought me a 5 gallon bucket of smooth pickles for Christmas……..what am I going to do with all of these pickles?
