Pickles

I am devoting this whole blog to the wonderfulness that is the baby kosher dill pickle. I have always been partial to a cold, crisp dill pickle...especially with a good book. But I have been on a quest lately to find out if there is a food that doesn't taste great when eaten with a pickle. So far, the only thing that is disgusting when eaten with a pickle is barbeque sauce. That is just nasty. But here is a list of things that taste really great with pickles.

1. Chocolate icecream. That is an awesome combination. Especially with Food Lion brand baby kosher dill pickles. So wonderful. I eat it for breakfast most mornings.

2.Strawberries. So refreshing. Strawberry juice is also wonderful when eaten with a pickle.

3.Semisweet chocolate chips. If you must eat garlicky pickles, then this is the best way to eat them.

Hmmmm....Maybe cheese and pickles...Cheese fondue and pickles!!!!! Yum- o!!!!!!!

Oh! And I almost forgot one of the other great pickle combos!!! Buttercream Icing!!! Woohoo! That is some good stuff. I sort of want to buy a container of icing and a jar of pickles. But wait...There are pickles in the frig. Hubby says that he thinks that it is gross. But I think that he is just missing out. Just like how he won't eat okra. Weird.

AHHHHH Are you preggo or something???
Question: What are you guys doing saturday night? Will you and Shawn come with micky (geeze, I can't spell his name...) to our christmas party at 7pm. We're gonna have snacks, caroling with candles ......possibly a fire bowl.. Would love to see you there. :) -Ally

I don't know what a fire bowl is, but it sounds awsome.

Also, I have to agree with Shawn that this pickle thing is weird. You have clearly breached some manner of Old South eating etiquette by mixing frosting or ice cream with pickles.

Just to warn you there is a package on the way w/ some New England presents in it. The clothing item for the runt is a bit big but he'll grow into it. Have a Merry Christmas and don't get too drunk today celebrating the Back-to-Back National Champion ASU Mountaineers.
