More bread and butter pickles

With more of our very own cucumbers we decided we'd like to try bread and butter pickles, the same recipe I used for the zucchini.  Not as big a batch this time only 5 quarts and 2 pints.

These look a bit cloudy for a reason.  I am waiting on mustard seed, I ran out in the middle of the season!!  Shame, shame, shame.  But then again I wasn't planning on doing that many pickle recipes that called for it!  So in order to get these preserved before it was too late (my spice order should be here Monday as we don't have Saturday service for large packages) I used powdered mustard seed instead.

Crisis averted and veggies saved for later use.
