so on top of my Windstream H-E Double Hockey Sticks, we lost 1 phase of our building power at 1:30 AM. UPS kicked in but that gave us ony 1/2 hour uptime and of course we don't have a standby generator. Been here all night re-routing power on extension cables to get the office back up and running on the remaining phases. Power company has no idea how we blew the phase out. On the plus side, the move to a colocation facility just got accelerated!

Sending this picture I took to my local spicy pickle producer of a heart shaped pepper I found in my jar last night.
Yes, I live an exciting life.

Looks more like a heart shaped pepper to me... or maybe a carrot. But that is quite exciting.

You must have replied before I fixed it.
Next batch he is making with the Carolina Reaper. I think I'll steer clear of that one.

I've never pickled before, but everyone says they are so much better than the store brand stuff..

Generally... We can't figure out how to get ours to be super crisp though...

You have to lacto-ferment them (instead of using a vinegar brine) to get that crisp texture, like a Kosher pickle.

^^^ Just an example of the technique, I haven't tried that recipe.
