I'm still working on a gallon of pickle relish I bought 5 years ago.
(maybe someday I will learn my lesson) I keep it in the little dorm
fridge in the basement, with the beer and soda pop, and transfer it to a
small jar in the main fridge as we use it.

I should check if it will fit in a quart canning jar yet...
