Pickled Watermelon Rhine


I got this wild hair....and made watermelon rhine pickles tonight.  My Dad brought 2 huge watermelons to me and, well,  there was a lot of it around.   Visions of my Mom in the kitchen whipping up preserves, canning vegetables, etc...well it looks easier than it is!

So the pickles are done, the lids NEVER seal for me so I guess I'll put all 6 (large) jars of pickles in my tiny little refrigerator until I can pawn them off on someone to try!  Oh yeah, and did I mention that I missed one BIG step while reading the instructions?  I forgot to trim the outside rhine off the melon before cooking - darn - it's rather chewey, I suggest you just bit the pickle just up to the edge!
