Pickles

People who know me well, also know I love pickles. Did you know in the 19th century pickles were kept on the table like you would salt & pepper? They were kept in pickle jars like the one here. If you find a pickle jar that also includes a pair of tongs you may have found yourself quite a prize.

I did not know that! Being a pickle lover myself I would think that would be pretty cool to have.

We have several gorgeous antique Victorian Pickle Castors in my family. I think that's what they're called.
