Diana's Easy Fridge Pickles. Find your favorite BIG jar with a lid. Make sure it's squeaky clean! Peel and slice enough cucumbers, red peppers and sweet onions to fill the jar to the brim. (They shrink when the hot brine hits them.) 2 cups water, 2 cups vinegar of your choice (I just use Heinz 57 plain old white vinegar), 2 cups sugar. Boil those together until the sugar is dissolved, stir a few times. (Should just be bubbling; doesn't have to be a rolling boil.) Add 2 Tbsp chopped garlic to the brine, then pour it into the jar. Let the mixture cool, then cap and put in the fridge. Tasty the very next morning. Keep stored in the fridge, and I tip the jar over or shake it up when I think of it. Totally yummy.
