The stats that WordPress offer are really good and I can see which posts get a lot of traffic, which get none, what search terms bring people here (thank you for visiting!!) etc. One of my favorite ones to look at is the most popular posts. The home page of course gets the most hits, so I ignore it for the most part. By far, the most popular recipe on Gram’s Recipe Box is….icicle pickles!

Before I went through the recipe box, I had never heard of icicle pickles. Remember, these are the pickles that take 12 days to make and Gram or Mernie made a note that they look awful at various stages of the process. Perhaps because of the popularity of icicle pickles, I’ll have to try making them after all.
