Adventures in Pickling!

This year in my garden I planted pickling cucumbers with the intent to can my own pickles.  I finally had enough cucumbers to make a batch.  This was the first canning of the season that I have done and in my books I think it was a success!  
 Got my cute cucumbers and dill all ready to go.
 Always handy to have a mandolin slicer to make the job faster!
 All stuffed with garlic, dill, mustard seed, peppercorns and vinegar water.
 Bath time!
My beautiful jars of dill pickles.  For best results they say not to open them for 4-6 months.  So I guess  I will get back to you on whether or not they taste good!
