Herbal Fireworks
I got my delivery of pickling cucumbers yesterday and got busy canning this morning. I make a spicy version of dill pickles I call Firecracker Dills that I decided to photograph. I got a kick out of how the dill kind of looks like fireworks, rather appropriate for something named Firecracker. My Norwegian relatives would laughingly call these spicy pickles "food that hurts".

Brings back all sorts of memories from when my mom canned pickles.
p.s. I just planted some for the cooler weather of fall. It goes to seed so easily that you have to succession plant it every 2-4 weeks, which I can never manage.
