Playing With Our Food

This is what happens when, despite some ungodly temperatures here in North Carolina, your garden decides to go forth & dispense some goodies. I have 30 cucumbers in my crisper drawer right now, y'all. What. The. Heck. Fortunately, I like a good cucumber challenge. (Get your mind out of the gutter.) The first thing I did when our Seed Savers Exchange A&C and White Wonder  cukes started showing up was to find a good pickling recipe. And with temperatures hanging in the 100 degree fun zone for nearly 2 weeks here, I needed one that didn't require processing them. Who could conceive of a hot water canning bath in that kind of weather?
