First, a pickling update:<\/p>\n

1) The pickles I made were gross. Vinegar is important. When I get cucumbers in my weekly vegetables, I will try a different recipe and hopefully luck into some delicious pickles.
\n2) My dad stopped over and I gave him both jars of pickled beets. The recipe said they needed to pickle for 3 days, and it had only been one, but he tasted a beet anyway. His response was, “They’ll be good in a salad.” Under pressure, he admitted that they weren’t very good, but we hypothesized that the 3 days might help things. Otherwise, they might only be good in a salad.<\/p>\n

Updates from the garden:<\/p>\n

1) The Easter Lily that Nathan gave us several years ago is blooming!<\/p>\n

\"Easter<\/a><\/p>\n

2) EFFING RABBITS! I shake my fist angrily at you! ALSO, I spray disgusting storebought bunny repellent at what must be the most delicious of the plants. I hope the putrescent egg solids foil you!<\/p>\n

BEFORE AND AFTER:<\/p>\n

\"Before\"<\/a> \"After\"<\/a><\/div>\n

3) The other day, I opened our fire pit for the first time since my brother and Dad put it in and built a fire! It was pretty cool:<\/p>\n

\"FIRE!\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Other than that, not much is happening around here. I had breakfast with Big Steph and her two girls yesterday morning, and that’s really about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
