garden gift
While most of our garden has been consumed by the local fauna (the rabbit, chipmunk, and deer communities enjoy my free salad bar) we’ve had a few surprises this year. It’s always nice when the garden gives me a gift.
I just wish they happened before I went to the store.
This cucumber has been the largest. To my surprise it was also very tasty. It went well with some pita and enhanced a store-bought tzatziki.
Due to limited space I’ve previously not been keen on anything that is a vine grower. This year I relented and we planted two in the container — with both a tomato and a pepper. That wasn’t the best move, the other plants have been crowded out.
The cucumbers are in love with the weather (at least something is).
