Cucumbers, sliced thin
Onions, sliced thin
4 c. sugar
4 c. vinegar
1/3 c. salt
1 1/2 tsp. celery seed
1 1/2 tsp. mustard seed

Slice cucumbers and onions into a 1-gallon jar in proportions to taste. I mix mine half and half.

Combine the remaining ingredients in a pan and bring to a boil. Pour slowly into the filled jar. Poke a long handled spoon down sides to allow bubbles to rise, making room for rest of liquid.

Place in refrigerator for at least 1 week before eating. Will stay well in refrigerator until you're ready to fill the jar again next summer.
