The Magic of Pickling!

Two weeks ago, Blake and I went to the Museum of Natural History to learn about the magic of pickling. One of the speakers, Bob McClure, brought lots of pickle samples from his company, McClure’s Pickles:

The pickled-curried sauerkraut was my favorite:

Blake really liked the cajun pickles from the Pickle People:

And Steve, from Guss’ Pickles, was a crowd favorite:

Steve was heavy handed when he gave me some pickles to try:

I ate more pickles than I’ve ever eaten in my entire life and also had the opportunity to try out my new Sony Handycam:

Sony gave me a Handycam because I’m starting to do more videos, but this video is definitely my first attempt at using my new camcorder. The lighting isn’t great and we didn’t have a tripod and it definitely doesn’t look like HD quality. On the plus side, the camera is tiny and fits into my purse very easily so I’ve been able to take it with me everywhere. Now I need to 1. buy a tripod, 2. look into microphones, and 3. work on making more videos!
