Dr. Bashioum’s Garden Homemade Pickles
September 26th, 2014
As the gardening season comes to a close in Wayzata, I’m experimenting with pickles again this year. This jar marks the first successful recipe that I’ve tried which proved to be edible and have also remained crunchy. I’ve learned that adding a small piece of horseradish leaf in the brine helps to keep that crunch. The cucumbers I grew this year are a yellow variety that have tender skin, making them especially great for salads, too without having to peel them. While it’s always disappointing to have an early frost, the bonus of having a few warm days ahead in the forecast make the task of winding up my gardening chores a more pleasant task.

In case you missed the live episode for our #MommyMakeover series, here is another segment for Twin Cities Live on KSTP-TV. Lisa graciously shared her own personal experience about considering and deciding to have breast enlargement restoration surgery after pregnancy. Her story is typical of patients we see that are unhappy with physical changes that may occur following pregnancy and nursing. We thank Lisa for allowing the Twin Cities Live cameras to document her journey. Please click here to watch our patient’s story of surgery, recovery, as we reveal her final result on TCL.
