Fresh from my parents garden are most of the ingredients in this Hot n' Sweet Pickle Recipe. After all I needed something to do with all those peppers.

For 7-8 Cups of the following use your personal ratio, as you might like more peppers or less... (my approximate is to the side)

cucumber (2 lg)
sweet onion (1/2 of md onion)
red cherry peppers (3)
banana peppers (6)
Anaheim peppers (6)
Jalapeno peppers (3)
garlic (1/2 head)

Chop up, and mix in:
1 t of kosher salt
1/4 cup sugar
let set in fridge for at least one - two hours

rise off mixture

stir back in 1 Cup of sugar & 1 t of cumin

cook the following on stove until it simmers:
1 Cup Sugar
1 Cup White Vinegar
1/2 Cup Cider Vinegar
1/2 Cup of Packed Brown Sugar
1 1/2 t of mustard seeds
1/2 t of cellary seed
1/8 t of turmeric

add to pepper mixture and let soak, then jar up.
