I don't know what happened...it was all there yesterday. I'll have to check it out. But you know, I lost the Shoutbox as well. Something goofy is going on.
I upgraded last night and I always forget these template edits. I wish the maker of this program would do a version with hooks so I don't have to do this every time.

Guess that explains what happened. I couldn't get the "save" function to work on edit last night without going to the "advanced" edit box. Guess this was during the upgrade. It's working fine today.
BB... is the "pickle marinade" the brine or juice that the pickles are in? Just never heard it called that.
Thanks for posting it. I'll have to try it out on the DH... he's a big dill pickle fan.

Yes, it is just the liquid in the pickle jar...call it whatever you'd like. You can strain it if it has peppercorns or anything else in it...just use the juice part.
