Canning... Any good pickle recipes? And what do I do with plums?

OK, so pickles and plums may seem an odd combination, but I just came in from the garden with a bunch of pickling cukes and a HUGE bag of plums--and the tree is still half full... So excited!

Anyone have a tried and true dill pickle recipe?

Any suggestions for preserving plums would be very appreciated as well. Not a fan of the syrupy sweet preserved fruit, but it would be nice to have something yummy to break open this winter. I think I know what I'll be doing this weekend :D

witchypoo:
plums can be pickled.

but I'd probably just make pie and jam with them.

I would love it! I've found a ton of recipes online, but there is a huge difference between good dill pickles and the soft mushy ones my mom used to always can... :)

And thanks for the plum suggestions--we're a pie free household at the moment, in the hopes that I'll stop expanding! Wonder if you could can plum pie filling? I may try the jam. My first attempt last summer at grape jam didn't go so well, so I feel the need to redeem myself.
