BEST EVER SWEET PICKLES
I pack away homegrown cucumbers every summer. This recipe is based on the pickled veggies in Brown Eggs and Jam Jars by Aimee Wimbush-Bourque, but I've made it less mustardy and more garlicky to fit my family's tastes. This method keeps them incredibly, refreshingly crunchy. -Ellie Martin Cliffe, Taste of Home Digital Deputy Editor

Steps:
- Completely drain the jar of dill pickles leaving pickles in the jar. Set aside.
- Bring all other ingredients to a hard boil.
- Immediately pour over the pickles in the jar.
- Recap tightly and turn jar upside down and allow to cool. (This should reseal jar so that they can be stored indefinitely).
- (I put all the spices, except for the garlic and the cinnamon stick, in a cheesecloth type bag. I press on the bag with a wooden spoon in vinegar/sugar mixture to get more flavor. It isn't necessary, but boiling the spices in a bag keeps them from floating around in the pickles).

MONA'S EASY REFRIGERATOR PICKLES
I got this recipe from an old family friend. She used to make us these pickles when we were kids. It is a really simple recipe, and the hardest part is not eating the pickles before they are ready. You can add pimentos, sliced bell peppers, or whole garlic cloves to the vinegar solution as alternative options.
