Cucumber is her absolutely favourite food.
She also likes apple, bread, pumpkin seeds... and most of all, hay!
This is a close up of one of our newly arrived micro cucumbers. Strangely enough, The noise on the surface is actually the cucumber not high ISO noise.

It is apparently cucumber season. Philip and Kirsten have a vegetable garden. As a consequence, Philip and Kirsten are now drowning in cucumbers. So Philip went around the party solemnly distributing one huge cucumber per guest. This is mine.
Yes, there were jokes.

The vantage from below is supposed to be the best. However, there was no way my back was going to make the journey.
Still, this scene did not disappoint.

Nothing tops off a breakfast of pork dumplings and spanish olives like some nibbles of cucumber and summer squash.
use your vegetable parer to cut thin long ribbons of cucumber. lay on brown bread spread with herby butter or cream cheese. cut off the funky bits so it's all neat and clean and aesthetically pleasing fnar, fnar.
Yup, just about every June/July or August issue of Taste of Home that I have has another Cucumber/Tomato recipe. It's a standard "how to use up garden abundance" type dish, but it also can be surprisingly similar to Indian cucumber raitas. Usually they use sour cream instead of yogurt, but otherwise quite similar. Though I don't like the way they separate, so I used the Kansas recipe in the bottom corner, which includes mayo - usually not a fan, but pretty good here.
I'm not sure how high these cucumber plants can grow. I'm hoping only a few feet because that's how tall the trellis is.
All of those cucumbers I planted about six weeks ago have started producing. The Monticello inspired teepees have been working well for supporting the vines, they look really lovely now that they're lush with cucumber and pole bean vines. I have had to train the cucumber vines to grow up the supports. I'm trying to think of a way to improve on this design next year. Last week I started harvesting cucumbers from all three varieties that I'm growing this season. I planted 12 vines of each in hopes of having a large flush of cucumbers for all those pickling recipes that call for pounds and pounds of cucumbers.
C-- Cucumbers are very good for you! They are full of vitamins C and K and are low in saturated fat! They taste great too!

First cucumber in our home garden. We used garden seeds to grow plants. Cucumbers are going to be replanted outside when the weather becomes warmer.
Recipe from the Barbecue Bible: (I used a regular cucumber, didn't seed it, just sliced super thin)
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons peanuts, dry roasted, coarsely chopped
1 cucumber, European
OR
1 large regular cucumber
1/4 sweet onion, large, such as Vidalia
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoon sugar, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
Directions:
Set a dry skillet over medium heat. Add the peanuts and heat until lightly browned, about 2 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally. Transfer to a plate to cool.
Peel and seed the cucumber. Cut the cucumber crosswise into 3-inch sections, then lengthwise into spaghetti-thin strips. Cut the onion into as thin crosswise slices as possible.
Combine the vinegar, sugar, and salt in a serving bowl and whisk until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Taste for seasoning, adding sugar or salt as necessary; the dressing should be both tart and sweet. Stir in the cucumber and onion. Sprinkle the salad with the peanuts and serve.
