The last several weeks at “ The Farm ” has had it ’s challenges .   It has rained almost every day , sometimes , all day .   This has limit the undertaking that we can fill in outside , and has chair to some ‘ down time ’ .

I have to admit , down time in the middle of the summertime , is n’t always a bad thing .   It ordinarily gives us a probability to captivate up on some inner projects that mostly go omit until the winter month .

This week I used that time to go through some recipe that had been feed to me when my Grandmother passed away in November .

I enjoyed seeing her handwriting and her side notes jotted down on the side of each bill of fare .   As I was going through them , most called for an extraordinary amount of white sugar , white flour and oleo .

As a side note , I postulate the kids if they had ever heard the term ‘ oleo ’ and they looked at me as if I was get to up a Modern texting acronym .   Oh , how have the times change … ..

I did run across a recipe for sweet pickles that caught my interest . Now , to be good , I am not a fan of sweet pickles , but Jim loves them .
