πChristmas Pickle-tini w/Cukes & Dill Shrubπ
My family still celebrates hunting for the π₯ hidden amongst the pine needles in our Christmas tree every year! The pickle is the last ornament to be hung and the first kid to find the pickle was given a special π. It was usually a little gift bag of candy.Β Β
I introduced this family tradition to my husband, who thought I was crazy when on our first Christmas morning together, I challenged him to find the PICKLE π₯!Β My little pickle is only about an inch long and our tree is about 9 feet tall....challenge accepted! 45 minutes later, he found it!Β I wanted to share this fun holiday tradition with a twist! Have a safe and happy Holiday!πΈ
