These pickles are great & will stay crispy! No canning required!

And the current upsets your boat
Don't think of things that might have been
Just lay on your back and float

If you have never made gazpacho now is the time to try it. This is a great summer soup that you serve cold. Some people dice all the vegetables and then puree them. What a waste. Leave them diced. The crunch is a good thing.
Thank you all for the great recipes.I don`t know which one to try first as they all sound good.
