REVISITING FABULOUS REFRIGERATOR PICKLES

Life without Tom is still very painful, but I have started to do more cooking for family and friends.  When Tom's cousins were here from Mississippi, I made these pickles just about every day as The Cousins just loved them.  The pickles were used as a fresh cucumber salad, a relish for sandwiches, and they even used the juice for a salad dressing.

I also made them for the first time for the family my Grandson married into last summer.  Not only has he become a very valued member of the family, but they have adopted me too.  Last Sunday there was a steak cook-off dinner around the pool.  All the men cooked their best steak recipe.  I am glad we weren't required to vote for a favorite as they were all great.  These pickles were a big hit too. My favorite picture of the heart, as I didn't have a camera, was Bradley walking down the middle of the road pulling his grill behind him as he brought the grill from his home to his in-laws.  Caption to the picture in my heart, "Taking your grill for a walk greatly improves the flavor of the food you're grilling."
