RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

So, without needing to guess much, it's likely going to be a shittacular Holiday Season. Everything is going to be expensive and stupid and extra scammy and shit. More so than usual (Subscribe for more uplifting messages every day delivered to your inbox. Or don't. See if I care.)

Anyway, I cook, and make lots of homemade stuff as the season and market allows.

I just finished making 10 jars of super dill-y dill pickles, and a few of okra. Which I'm making with the plan of giving them to people I like for the holidays, as people usually love the recipe I use. I never planned on being "the pickle guy" but here we are.

Might also make some bubbly 7% ABV spiced honey wine, beer, vanilla extract, herbal bitters for coughs. We'll see.

Just curious if anyone has any similar plans in mind and what y'all are making.

I like them on roast beef sandwiches or with crackers and cheese!
