IN A PICKLE!

                 IN A PICKLE!

   The term "In a pickle" is usually
associated with trouble. You know,
like the base runner caught between
2nd and 3rd while the infielders toss
the ball to each other till they tag him
out!
  But today it's OK to be in a pickle!
 October 6th is "Pickle Day!"
   If you want to be part of the biggest
Pickle celebration you'll have to head
to the Big Apple!
   Back in 1999 a group in New York's
lower East Side decided to begin a\
street fair reminiscent of the days when
the streets in that neighborhood were
filled with push cart merchants selling
all kinds of fruits and vegetables and,
of course, pickles.
      These days it's turned into a three
block festival that draws thousands of
people.
      Of course if you want to stay closer
to home perhaps you can enjoy the
treat that's growing in popularity around
here. Pickle Pizza! Perfect for this
"holiday."
      I just hope you won't join those to
celebrate by getting pickled.....and
that all your NEWS is good!
