I wanted to share with everyone a recipe that I found while in Nova Scotia. I have to thank my friend's mother, Carol Bray, for sharing it with me. She lives on a farm and shared this lovely pickle recipe with me. I haven't tried it yet, but when I start living closer to the land I will definitely start to pickle. Someone should try it and get back to me though.

7 cucumbers
