• In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, heat the sugar, vinegar, and celery seed. Stir occasionally. When the sugar has completely melted, pour the hot mixture over the cucumbers. Add the dill. Let cool to room temperature. Place a lid on the bowl and refrigerate for 2 days before eating. Eat straight from the bowl, or transfer to jars if desired. You could also transfer the room temperature mixture to jars before refrigerating for 2 days. Pickles keep very well for a few weeks.

AWESOME & EASY SWEET PICKLES

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).
