Wonderful way to do this and sugar-free, too!

This was a really easy way to make bread and butter pickles for my mom who is on a diet that restricts sugar. I doubled this to make them last longer :). I found that they were tarter than normal bread and butter pickles, so I probably could have use one cup of splenda if I wanted. Thanks for this bread and butter pickle recipe that doesn't have any sugar! Made for Fall PAC 2008.
