Refrigerated Dill Pickles

8 pickling cucumbers* sliced
1 medium onion sliced
2 cloves garlic
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup vinegar
4 tsp. salt
3 tsp. fresh dill weed

Place onion, garlic, sugar, water, vinegar, and salt in sauce pan. Stir and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in dill weed. Put cucumber slices in a jar or other container with lid. Pour the hot syrup over cucumbers. Store in refrigerator. Will store for quite a while.

*if cucumbers are large and bitter, peel off the skin for best results.
