As a potter, I didn't even know they existed. I completed a one gallon crock and a two gallon crock in the last two days. I made lids, and a disk with finger holes to weight down the cukes. They look really cool, and I am excited to see how they work! Had my first request to make a pickle crock. As a potter, I didn’t even know they existed.

Today it will be twenty bucks. Every year we make dill pickles, last year being our biggest success! I have always wanted to try doing them in a crock. So off to go back to the estate sale for the 3rd time. Hopefully it will still be there. Wish me luck ... OK I have had my eye on a crock pot at an estate sale. Today it will be twenty bucks.
