7 day Sweet Pickles: Day 1

I started my 7 day pickles today. This pickle recipe was given to me by a good friend. My children love these. They are the best & easiest sweet pickle recipe I have ever tried. The first day you slice your cucumbers and cover with 1 cup of salt and then cover cucumberswith boiling water. Set out and cover for 24 hours. To be continued.....

Turkey Burgers on The Grill

My "Sweet Hunter" can grill like no one else can! I prepared the ground turkey by adding crushed cracker crumbs, olive oil, mustard, a little garlic and fresh ground pepper. I always buy the 97% fat free turkey. My "Sweet Honey" bastes these burgers with Dales Steak Sauce while he grills them. We added some cheddar cheese, tomato, pickles & some grilled buns and had the perfect hamburger. We love the Lay's Kettle Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips. Add a Coke and you have a great meal!

Carrot Cake

I got this recipe from The Pioneer Woman!

I doubled her recipe and took 1 to the lake and put 1 in the freezer. It was yummy & so easy! Hmmmmmm........I think I will go get it out of the freezer! Hope you enjoy!
