Obsessed with
Lady Gaga Remix Album, to curb the craving for more material
True Blood, to curb the craving of Alexander Skaarsgard
A carb limited diet. Meaning by day 5 I have to eat SOMETHING with a tortilla, or bread or pasta or fried or pho OH MY.

I am Trifle and I am addicted to pickles
From a very young age I can remember reaching in the fridge on a hot summer day for cold crisp pickle. I prefer kosher dill. Once again, I am not programmed with a sweet tooth. I have learned through the years that you cannot buy the cheap store brand pickles, they aren't very good and nothing close to fresh.
For Christmas, Lissa jarred her own pickles and gave them as gifts. Each jar had it's opening date so the pickles could hang out long enough for amazing flavor. These were the best pickles I have EVER had. Perfect balance of freshness and vinegar. They were garlicky and crunchy.
Have you ever made you own pickles? Have you pickled anything else?
