Pickle News & More!

The great ladies behind Miss Jenny's Pickles participated in the President's Jobs Council and look where it landed them-AND their pickles-in CHINA. Congrats to you guys and please send us posts from your adventures in China!

Oh, I'm going to be profiled in an upcoming book by Andrea Chesman and published by Storey Publishing called The Pickled Pantry! I'll be sure to brag about that even more once the book is available!

Back in September I attended the International Food Bloggers' Conference at The Hotel Monteleone (home of my fave (non-pickle) drink the Brazilian Sparkle at The Carousel Bar). I had an amazing time, met wonderful people with great blogs and I ate like a rich person. If you're a food blogger yourself, I highly recommend attending any of the IFBCs-the next one is November 11-13 in Santa Monica!

Capdeville, the awesome bar & restaurant that just happens to be next door to my job, is now serving FRIED PICKLES-coincidence? I think not, but then again I DO take credit for anything pickle related that happens anywhere near me. These are unlike any fried pickles I've ever had because the batter is chock full of tasty buffalo style hot sauce-GENIUS! They could be a little crisper but the batter to pickle flavor is spot on.


Ok, guys, I'm really sorry for such lazy blogging but with so much going on I'm struggling to keep up. But DO STAY TUNED for a very thorough upcoming report on Naked Jay Pickle Vodka!

Hello, Lover




We've only met online but it's pretty safe to say I'm in a relationship...with Naked Jay Vodka. JUST TODAY I learned from a coworker that there was a pickle flavored vodka out there and a quick google search and a tweet later there's a bottle on it's way to ME!

People, this is a big deal and yeah, I'm a little excited.
Go ahead and find your own bottle and we'll meet back here to find out if you mix it or drink it straight from the bottle.
