We Have Cucumbers!
So. My first attempt at gardening had mixed results this year. The squash, that I thought would do so well, got too much water and rotted out. The carrots, though they did well, were stumpy b/c we didn't dig down deep enough and the couldn't push through the clay to get longer. The peas grew okay, but there weren't that many. The cucumbers, however, really came through! I had to replant the seeds in June (they didn't take in May) and since then, they really have grown! I could hardly believe my eyes when I finally got out there today (after rain and humidity all week) and there were sooo many! I picked a dozen large ones today and that was just the first batch! Anyone know any good cucumber recipes??

Thanks so much for sharing a cucumber. It was delicious!

anything thai is really good with cukes. check out thai recipes on line. I add it to BLT's and sometimes just have a cuke and tomatoe sandwich, with maybe some cheddar cheese. so good. Love cucumbers. Love the vinegar and onion cucumber combo. very bad breath but good.
mmmm...cream cheese and cucumber and dill sandwiches...I am so jealous! I have not had one home grown thing this year which marks a sad, sad year in my book! You guys all look great! Love the flower crowns. Princesses.
