Best of FPF: A Cucumber Crisis

Lisa posted this plea in the St. Albans Town Forum. We thought it was well worth the share.

“Friends, neighbors… we need your help. Our garden has staged a full-scale cucumber coup, and we are losing the battle. They’re multiplying faster than we can pickle, slice, or sneak into unsuspecting salads. If you’ve been dreaming of making tzatziki, cucumber water, or just want an excuse to whack something with a chef’s knife — your moment has arrived.

Swing by our driveway and liberate some cukes. Take one, take ten… take enough to build a cucumber fort.

Save us before we’re forced to start adding them to pancakes.”
