Sweet & Sour Pickles
Here's one of my favorite super easy recipes. If you can cut something, you can make these!
Sweet & Sour Pickles
3 cucumbers -- sliced
2 tablespoons salt
1 to 2 cloves garlic -- minced
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
3 onions -- sliced
1 cup white vinegar
Salt cucumbers and let stand for 3 hours (or overnight).
Mix remaining ingredients well (add onions last) and then combine all. Will be ready in a few days. I use 32 oz mayonnaise jars to store them. No need to "can" them, they will keep well for a couple of months.

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. -RWE
