Cucumber anyone??

Wow, its been awhile. At the time I started this blog it was because I had alot of time on my hands and needed a project. However, my world became quite busy with two jobs and then house work, and weddings and wedding showers and baby showers and on and on the list goes. :) The last time I wrote I had big plans of decorating my house. Well, lets just say decorations are alot more expensive than I originally thought. So that project is on hold while I save some money. So I am onto another project. I started a garden a couple of months ago and while its not the prettiest thing in the world it is producing  nicely. I have been very excited about my garden and couldnt wait to eat the lettuce and zucchini and carrots. So tonight my husband and I went out to see how it all was doing and we found a ton of what I had thought was zucchini. So we took one inside, washed it and cut off a chunk to taste....it tasted very good, but it did not taste like zucchini. Probably because instead of zucchini.....it was a cucumber. So I now have a garden full (and when I say full I mean really full) of carrots, lettuce and most of all......cucumbers. Oh the little things we learn. Next year I will read labels more clearly. I guess the best thing to do is just laugh......and find a lot of recipes for cucumbers. :) If any of my blogger friends out there have any ideas on what to do with a ton of cucumbers besides salad let me know or if you ever need a free cucumber and are in the area give me a call I will give you a couple. :)
