[Sca-cooks] Probably OOP cucumber questions

[wyldrose]

My Mom made a type of pickle with cloves, it was sweeter and similar to the 
taste of an apple ring  that is used around Thanksgiving.  She also used 
them in another type of pickle  that that was also sweeter than sour.  They 
required a bit more work than making dills did.  My mom claimed it was an 
old Pennsylvania Dutch recipe and handed down to her.
