>when im done with the pickles i keep the jar of juice in the fridge and sip it when desired, anyone else do this?
My mom pours a little brine over the hot, just steamed, potatoes when making a good potato salad. They suck up the brine. Germans do the same thing with beef stock on the potatoes! Protip, you're welcome.

But me? I worry about hurting my teeth or GI health, so I just pour it down the drain and recycle the glass. I then take a jar right out of the pantry, or already have a jar ready to go. I probably have every type of pickle already on hand for when the mood strikes. I have the bread and butter for BBQ days, topping a sandwich. I have the crunchy eating out of hand "half sour" pickle that is my #1 favorite for eating out of hand. I also will have at least one jar of mini gherkins or some sweet pickles or relish. Every now and then, I'll buy horseradish pickles, or sweet-hot local pickles from a local vendor at the farmer's market.
Thinking of relish, I always have some chowchow or some Howard's pepper relish. This is for dogs, or spreading on a cheese sandwich. There are some mustard cubes I get at the german deli in town, dunno what they're called in german, they remind me of watermelon rind pickles, versus cucumber.
