I just realized, I hardly ever eat pickles. I'll sometimes have them with sandwiches when I'm in a sandwich mood, but beyond that I don't give them much thought. I do like all kinds though: dill, bread & butter crisps, gherkins of all kinds.

Today is National Pickle Day. RecipeSource has a bunch of pickle recipes, from 14 Day Sweet Pickles to Zucchini Pickles (333 recipes in total!). Here's one for Nukazuke, which are Japanese pickles (made with rice bran and cabbage) You can even buy a T-shirt to tell everyone how much you appreciate the pickle.

Everybody at my work would get in on creativity pot lucks based around these foods often, if only we knew they were coming up. Do you have a calendar or something you can provide us of all these wonderful days?
