HERB - Another question about Dill

[GdDRUID@aol.com]

Greetings!

Since the subject of dill was brought up, it reminded me of something.  When 
I was young my grandmother made what she called sun pickles.  They came in 
three varieties: dill, sweet, and bread and butter.
They involved heating up the ingredients one time, pouring the vinegar 
solution over the room temperature cucumbers in individual bell jars, then 
leaving them outside in the sun for a week.  I remember we sunned them upside 
down, and we had to shake them once a day to keep the ingredients from 
settling too much.
I can't recall anything much about the sweet, but the dill involved fresh 
dill and other spices, and the bread and butter had sliced onions in the mix.
They tasted wonderful, and were a great way to work with the four rows of 
cucumbers my gardening-happy mother had planted. (She always was the 
masochist! <G>)

My question: Any idea on where to get the recipes again? Grandma could never 
find them after that crazy summer.
