Flo's Sweet Pickles

I got this recipe from my mother and so I will call it Flo's Sweet Pickles. It might be a common receipt, but I'm not aware of it. It's pretty simple and yields one gallon of very sweet pickles.
  • Go buy 1 gallon of round sliced dill pickles. My mother buys them from Sam's Warehouse.
  • Drain out all of the juice from the gallon of dill pickles, leaving the pickles in the jug.
  • Fill the jug full with tap water and drain, then repeat again. Make sure all the water is well drained the second time.
  • Take a bowl and measure out 8 cups of sugar.
  • Pour 2 - 12 oz bottles of Heinz Gourmet Tarragon Vinegar

    into the sugar bowl and stir, mixing well. Wait a few minutes and stir again.
  • Pour all of the sugar mix into the gallon of pickles. It should fill the jug completely. Put the lid on the jug, rotating and mixing well.
  • Put in the refrigerator and in about 12 to 24 hours you will have some very good and very sweet pickles.

Long-term review of The North Face Hedgehog GTX XCR III hiking shoe

THE NORTH FACE HEDGEHOG GTX XCR III Recently I switched to a lighter boot / shoe for backpacking since most of my hiking is geared toward ultralight. My first hiking shoe was a Merrill brand. It was light with a Vibram sole with Gore-Tex outer waterproof shell. I liked the shoe. Besides backpacking in it, I wore it daily and went on 4 mile trail runs a few times a week. Eventually, the shoe wore out and I went on the search for a replacement. I  basically wanted the same features, but I decided to try another brand so I could compare performance for future purchases. I decided on The North Face  Hedgehog GTX XCR III. This shoe is superior to my Merrill in terms of insole padding, aggressive Vibram sole and lacing eyes. It provides better support and the fit size is accurate. I wore it a daily for a few weeks, then went on a vacation and hiked 13 miles in the Smoky Mountains. No blisters, not issues. The Gore-Tex served me well due to the many wet areas I had to cross....

Review of Crocs Men's Modi Flip Flops

Review of Crocs Men's Modi Flip Flops As a result of an injury and suffering from Plantar Fasciitis and a heel spur, I needed some comfortable flip flops that offered support and heel comfort.  I previously had some Croc knock-off, slip on shoes and they felt comfortable, so I did some online research, reading reviews about various Croc shoes, and determined that the Croc Modi Flip was highly regarded. I went to my local sports store and tried on half a dozen flip flops to see which were the most comfortable, comparing them to the Modi Flip, and determined I like the Modi the best as they seemed to provide the best comfort for my heel. As an added bonus they have nice foot massage bumps. I first bought size 11 thinking it fit the best, but once at home, sitting and walking in the house, I decided they were a little snug across the top of my foot, so I exchanged them for size 12. They fit perfect, not too tight when sitting in a chair, yet snug enough when walking. ...
