The only good thing about being home alone is that I can fix anything I want to eat and there’s no schedule. Today it was a late lunch.
It was a roast beef sandwich on a pretzel bun with horseradish mustard, Duke’s mayo and provolone cheese, along with fried goat cheese, the new pickles, tomatoes and leftover potato salad.
Those pickles, which are Atwoods’ brand, are delicious!
They aren’t overly spicy nor do they have an overwhelming garlic taste. To me they taste more sweet than dill.
They are so good. These taste a lot like the pickles I make using a big jar of dill pickles, slicing them and adding sugar and letting them sit for a while. These may be my new favorite pickles.
Next trip to town, I’ll be stopping and getting more of these pickles.
When we passed Atwoods the other day, Addie told me they have baby chicks. She said “We should get some and surprise Grumps!” I thought . . Granny might be the one with a surprise if Grumps shows up and I have baby chicks in the garage. When I was in there today, I could hear them. Not sure who gets baby chicks this time of year but . . what do I know? The only thing I know for sure is . . it won’t be me! 🙁

Those pickles remind me of some we got when we lived back east – I have found them in a couple of places locally now. Wickles Pickles – don’t know if you have them or if you’ve tried them or not. Hot sweet pickles – I really like them even though I don’t like sweet pickles, LOL.

I could buy Wickles in Texas but I wasn’t crazy about them. The ones I bought today are a little sweeter and a little less hot.

Those look like good pickles! You are not a farmer any more! You are a suburbanite! LOL
Judy Laquidara says
Always a farmer at heart! 🙂

Please explain fried goat cheese. Sounds interesting.
Judy Laquidara says
I buy the little goat cheese logs, slice them a little thicker than 1/4″. Dip them in an egg, then in panko and fry in butter.

You are so funny about the chicks! What a child thinks would be a good surprise, an adult may not!
