In my view of the world, you do the work, so you get to have the fun in labeling the result of your Sweat Equity.    Yesterday the 200 pound (slight exaggeration) beet and her friends, the cut little yellow necked squash got pickled.  Since mostly I give these to friends and relative, I thought I should have a little fun with the pickle process, and NO there is no alcohol in my pickling, only in the pickler.
