We started with peeling lots of garlic (oh how I love garlic cloves!).
Mike is a cat-lover, and his 3 felines are not shy about checking out what we're doing. Or just sitting on the cook book. "Helping," of course.
I did lots of cucumber cutting, and shoving them into the jars. It's not as easy as it looks!
Mike had the pot of water outside, but once we put the first tray inside, there wasn't enough water, so he added some more from the garden hose. Then we started to see little things floating around. Did a jar break? We couldn't tell.
Yup. It was verifiable. We had a broken jar. I guess we should have added hot water.
Our take from the day.
He gave us a few jars and they're sitting on the shelf downstairs, aging away.
