Pappy's Pickles

Prior to our New Hope Trip, Daimon and I made pickles with pickling cucumbers that were so big we could barely fit them all in two jars. It takes about a week for the pickles to marinate in all the spices and vinegar, so we went on our trip and enjoyed them when we came back.  There's no way I could eat the spicy ones, but our friends have consumed most of them at this point.  It's become a summer tradition for us to make pickles, with all organic ingredients from his dad's garden; even the garlic we pulled out of the ground!

Beware, if you have one of these you will never buy store-bought pickles again.
