If there’s one thing southerners love, it’s pickled foods. Pickled pigs feet, sausage, and eggs are staples in many homes in Alabama. Tonight, my housemate and I decided to pickle just over 100 eggs. We’ll sell most of them at a nearby auction (they easily bring $5/pint) and eat the rest.

I tried my hand at making some tortillas tonight. My car battery died, which meant I couldn’t drive to town to get any pre-packaged ones. I had already made some bean/rice mix and guacamole on Sunday. So, I just threw them on my first ever homemade tortillas. They were not perfect, but they’ll beat store-bought ones any day.

I made some watermelon rind preserves earlier this week. So, for my weekend snack, I decided to make a couple of peanut butter and watermelon rind preserves sandwiches. Yummy!
I just wanted to give a special thank you post to Granny here on my blog. She taught me how to make dill pickles tonight. With just a few cucumbers from my garden, we made six pints of pickles that’ll be ready for eatin’ in a few weeks.
