Make these Cucumber Pickles in Minutes

By Lori Powell
There is a local farmers’ market about a quarter of a mile up the road, open on Sundays from 9 to 1. After watching “CBS This Morning,” my go-to show and a regular weekend ritual, I grab my market bags and stop by to check out the new offerings. This week, there was an abundance of cucumbers, tomatoes and corn.
A freshly-cut cucumber perfumes the air as soon as it is cut. It’s so refreshing on hot summer days – and hot days seem to be a regular occurrence here in Pennsylvania. I love cucumbers as a snack, done simply, freshly sliced with a sprinkle of sea salt...yummmm!!
