Refrigerator Pickles

~from Savoring Time in the Kitchen

1 cup white vinegar

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup water

1-2 teaspoons celery seed (I use 2)

1 teaspoon salt

3 cups sliced cucumber

3 small onions, thinly sliced

Place sliced cucumber and onions in a large container or bowl.  In a separate bowl, stir vinegar, sugar, water and salt together until dissolved.  Add celery seed.  Pour mixture over cucumber and onions and refrigerate.

**Many have asked when these can be eaten.  I sometimes nibble on them the same day but they taste best in 1-2 days, in my opinion.

Keeps for 2-3 months.
