Eleventeen is my favorite word!!!

So my 5 gallon bucket of eggs idea is on hold, but I did standardize everything so I’m not guessing on what to buy when I run to the bulk food store. I got 4 gallon jars from Amazon that have multi use lids for the containers. No more multiple random sized pickle jars. We like the eggs spicy...

Since thread creation, I have made 2 large batches of eggs, moved 1,700 miles from CO to WI and finally got around to firing up another batch! This one is 144 eggs. I think I am going to look in to some food grade 5 gallon buckets and just pickle them 5 gallons at a time!

And here they are, pretty maids all in a row....

My adventure begins..... NOW
