pickles in the rain

I finally got to make my dill pickles today! It was my first attempt, so we will have to wait a while to find out if I have pickles or soggy cucumbers.

Before I made the pickles, it rained. It rained and rained and rained. Then we went on a long walk to the grocery store to get pickling spice; we walked to be in the rain (ahhhhh) and so kiddo could splash along the way.

Heheh. Mostly the rain helps keep the temperature in the kitchen from getting too insane... all that boiling ya know. The verdict is still out on the pickles... I am not convinced they are properly preserved just yet...
