Thread: In the Garden 2018

Well I had enough of my roma tomatoes to harvest and can. As you can see there are more coming on.

The biggest one is still on the vine. The total that I picked today was 15 lbs-----



Now to get everything ready to can!

Supper tonight. 3 cukes that were a little large for pickles. I am letting them soak with a little salt to draw out some water. Then add the mayo.



The bigger end of a zuchinni on the table next to the bowl. If anyone wants a couple just stop by!

A summer treat for us is a salad of:

Sliced cucumbers
Onion sliced
Tomato chunks

Mix them up and add cider vinegar and sugar to taste

Let the mixture soak overnight and enjoy

Mom and Dad used to do the same but without the tomato. They simply called it Cucumbers and Onion.

Same when I was a kid in Texas, just South of San Antonio.

Sounds great guys and I have probably had this one time or another but have never made it for myself.

What kind of ratio of onions to cukes is a good start with?

I think I am probably going to hear to use what you have and Walla Wallas are the best!

Mainly cucumber. Walla Walla onions are very mild so you can a lot of them if you like.

One day f my favorites is the cucumbers and onions in cider vinegar, eat them most every day, with the garden putting out so many, I took a laundry basket back to the rig last time. I love them cold with just salt and pepper too, Or on a sandwich

Dave all those jalepenos are screaming to be made into Armadillo Eggs!

You guys are making me hungry.

Cucumbers and onions...
Armadillo eggs...

Sounds like food for a meetup
