Sweet Gherkin Deviled Eggs | Faith, Hope, Love, and Luck Survive Despite a Whiskered Accomplice

Pickles are a big deal in my house right at this moment. For some reason my fridge if full of them, and not because I can’t bear to live without them. Each time I went to the market, I forgot that I had already bought some previously, and then they were always on sale for buy one get one free, forcing me to fill my buggy up with even more jars than I could possibly use in the foreseeable future. So now I’m throwing the little shriveled-up sweet little darlings on the plate with just about everything I make. Sandwiches, soup, salad, deviled eggs; they all taste better with pickles. Thank God B.O.B. Bob has finally learned to love them, otherwise I would be eating all those sweet little darlings on my own.
