As you might recall, I’m newly obsessed with the idea of making my own pickles. I haven’t actually done it but I like to think I will so I’ve bought equipment and reading material, which is practically the same as doing it, right?
By this same logic, taking my gym bag to the office equals a work out, by the way.
So imagine my frustration that the Ninth Annual New York City International Pickle Day is this Saturday — but I already have plans! They’re good plans, hanging out with my dad when he comes to visit, watching the Michigan-Michigan State football game together. But still, on the Web site they say:
|
And mmmmmmmm…. Pickle dishes at all the LES restaurants! (and don’t forget those pickled barroom condiments…) |
| On Orchard Street, just one block away, designers will be strutting their visions of the perfect Pickle Day outfit – from theater makeup to shoes. |
Apparently I will need to settle for going to the New York Food Museum some other day, when people are not in pickle costumes.
