How to Make Refrigerator Sweet Pickles

Grab the cucumbers. Today we’re making pickles!

Refrigerator pickles are easy to make, and they’re a great way to use up those cucumbers from your garden. With some simple boiling and mixing, you’ll have instant pickles.

The recipe I use, as well as my whole family, comes from my dear grandmother (now 95 years young). My grandma is an amazing cook. Growing up in the Depression era, she has always been thrifty with what she has, and this valuable skill carries through her cooking.
