Visting

My Mommy is in town for a visit this weekend, so I may not be posting as regularly as usual. Sorry for the inconvenience, if in fact this is an inconvenience for you.

I'll leave you with this thought: do you suppose pickles were an accident or a deliberate invention? I'm talking thousands of years ago, did some Sumerian scientist sit down and explore the preservative properties of vinegar and come to a conclusion about the best way to keep a bumper crop of cabbage or carrots or cucumbers? Or did someone drop a vegetable into a vat of vinegar by accident and come back to it six months later and find the cucumber was still edible? I'd like to think it was a scientist, but I know it my heart it was probably an accident.
