    I still haven't unpacked all my spices, so I had to improvise a little. I don't know how they taste just yet. I'll let you know in about a week.

    I cut up two small pickling cucumbers, put the slices in the jar, and then filled it with white vinegar. They I poured off the vinegar into the pot. I added:

    About 2 tsp honey
    1 crushed dundicut pepper
    allspice
    cloves
    pink peppercorns
    cardamom seeds
    garlic
    turmeric
    about 1 tsp salt

    Brought it to a boil for a minute or so, added the cukes, then turned it down, and let it simmer about 5 minutes. Then dumped it all into a jar and closed the lid.

    For breakfast, I cooked whole wheat oatmeal with cinnamon, brown sugar, diced apple and raisins. It was yummy, better than pre-packaged Quaker oatmeal, and a good way to share time with the kids.

    Just when I thought it was safe to look...
    That looks exactly what the doctor ordered and what I feel like having right about now.

    The kitchen has been under construction pretty much since we moved in, a few weeks ago. So I haven't done much cooking. I was able to bust out the crockpot, however, and make some posole:

    Spent yesterday morning harvesting green beans from our garden. Set the guys to work this morning, stemming and snapping. While they worked, I made up 9 jars of wild blackberry jam.
    Switched over to green beans once they were done. 20 pints of green beans down. Finished out the morning with 1/2 gallon of bread and butter pickles.
    So much fun!!

    Looks like it needs vodka.

    I got a 4lb pig shoulder on the bbq. Put it fat side down, with a nice garlic, and pepper based dry rub. Give it about 3 hrs with the coals not directly under it and BAM.
    I had a compass, but without a map, it's just a cool toy to show you where oceans and ice are.

    This thread makes me hungry
