About four years ago, Drew bought a GIGANTIC jar of pickles. That pickle jar sat in the fridge for roughly a year, eating up precious shelf space that could be used for milk, as he slooooowly ate one pickle at a time.
The pickle war continues, and Drew has called in a recruit. Benjamin has acquired a taste for pickles under the tutelage of his father. As an act of defiance, they drank an entire jar of pickle juice in front of me. EWWWW!!!!! The weirdest part is that they liked it!
I stand by my guns in saying that milk deserves shelf space over pickles any day.
Gigantic, pah. It was probably the size of a gallon of milk, no big deal. And I didn't eat it one at a time; they were slices, so I ate them one sandwich at a time. It did take about a year-and-a-half, but I saved $2 by buying the large jar instead of a normal one.
ReplyDeleteAs for Ben, he came to the realization that pickles taste good by himself, without my guidance. Like any good thing, it was presented to him for his own judgment, and he liked it. And yes, we both took turns drinking from the pickle jar in front of Kelli. But they were Claussen pickles, which are the good kind. I think anybody would agree with us.
Had a jar of oloves like that once. Many varieties in one jar, mostly inedible unless you are Greek. Ended up pitching them. I saw on a program about attaching electric wires to a pickle and having it light up.
