  1. Do I check out the new Surly Table in town?
    Do I make the Pickled Boiled Dirt Chunks?
    Do I make the Bean Pickles?
    The first would be the most fun.
    The third doesn't require any more shopping.
    The second requires a trip to the local liquor store for red wine.
    The first would be most fun . . . . .

    1. Go to town and check out Surly Table
    2. While in town, go to liquor store and pick up bottle of red wine.
    3. Go home and drink bottle of red wine
    4. Throw away Dirt Chunks, problem solved.
    5. Make Bean Pickles...or not....you won't care one way or another after
    consuming the wine anyway!

    Your Welcome!

    but if you went to the liquor store for the second, you could get
    half-boiled yourself.

    I like the way you think, Keith. I really do. Come over here and sit
    by me.

    It's 1:30 and I've done the two pints of bean pickles for the Fair.
    I've some leftovers sitting in the brine that will be fridge-stored
    without processing.

    The boiled dirt chunks were boiled and peeled last night and I think I
    over-cooked them, so I have a nasty feeling that I'm going to be making
    them later in the week, when I get more fresh blech. I may pour some
    sort of brine over what I cooked yesterday and give them to someone as a
    gift. I can think of two people who offered to take last year's Fair
    jars off my hands so I don't think getting rid of them will be a
    problem. They may not be like Aunt June's (June Cleaver), but they'll
    probably be better than what Aunt Nellie sells. I haven't tasted the
    greens I cooked.

    All of this seems to leave me with a plan to visit Surly Table. I don't
    have any money to spend right now so it might well be a fortuitous time
    to pay them a call. :-)

    Gotta stay sober for tonight's pork chops, though. I'm thinking grilled
    chops, parsleyed new potatoes, and green beans (not the pickled ones).

    hahaha! If I had money my life might be more like yours!
    I have to do paid work too often, and am feeling sorry
    for myself because I had to clean the house top to bottom
    over the last few days. So my choices went like this:

    1. Should I call the nasty client first?
    2. Should I finish that overdue report?
    3. Should I put the laundry in first, or
    clean off the side porch?
    4. Do I have time to gas my car on the
    way to the bank and still get the deposit
    in before 2 if I clean the inside and outside
    of the car first?
    5. Can I do all this and still have dinner made
    for the overgrown adolescent I am married to
    by the time he gets home?

    hahaha!

    I over processed the pickled beets yesterday. We do not talk about
    how that happened. I've got to see if I can find some more. Just
    finished Bread and Butter pickles. Waiting the 5 minutes to take them
    out of the BWB. Got them out and they all sealed.

    Supper tonight are leftovers. Zucchini and green beans from my

    about a mile from me. Pete grilled some chicken.

    Guess I better get the dishwasher unloaded and reloaded.

    Cathy uses words to the effect of "My choice is not listed" on every
    poll. http://www.recfoodcooking.com/survey/result.html?survey=129

    What's interesting about this poll is a lot of responders are not
    married and don't work. Hmmmm....

    This is an endearment, I see. And I see only One Choice, anyway, the
    others being merely imaginary. The Choice is your Destiny.

    I see that a bushel of the main ingredient is, as always, already there.

    Make 'em pickled and don't forget to also prepare a lot of Barb's Beety
    Beauty. You will need 'em both for the fair, in order to avoid your
    usual disastrous results with only a few black ribbons.
