Quick pickling is great.  Much quicker than the real deal, and a sneaky way to get the kids to eat more of the veg out of the garden.  I like your recipe, a little different than what I usually do.  I use water and vinegar, instead of the AC vinegar.  I will def be playing with some of those spices.  And don't forget - not just for veg!

Thank you! I will have to try the pickled eggs! Looks great!
