    Started a batch of Mustard Pickles today with cucumbers from our garden. The recipe is from my great great grandma that has been passed down to us (she was born in 1856) & they are the tastiest pickles I've ever had. :)

    My go to coffee cup is one my friend brought back from Florida when she went to see her mom. The only time I visited I ended up with a 3rd degree sunburn so I've refused to return to the state so far, but the cup is nice haha :)
