dear soaking pickles diary,
now that my pickles are all cut and soaking in alum bath in their crock, i can rest. i cut some of them differently this time. some i cut thin. some i cut in chunks. i plan to pack them in canning pint jars accordingly. i find myself always cutting the chunks into thinner slices for sandwiches and shit- so i figured i'd make some thinner ones this time. i'm catching on. they're gunna be good as fuck. i don't want to be one of those old people who can jars of food and keep them in the basement, but i don't know where else to keep them. it'll sure be a treat to have them all done before the tomatoes are ready to start the catsup. i sure hope i get to make catsup this year. ima bout out.
