While I’ve been laid up, the garden has been going nuts.  Even though I couldn’t get out of bed, the garden gots lots of attention. Before they headed off to Winnipeg, the boys where great about watering the garden while I was stuck in bed.

Today, EB pulled a passle of these wacky Lemon Cucumbers out of the small front patch next to the driveway.

Sitting in the bowl in the sink, you’d almost think they were actual lemons.  At about the size of a hardball, they’re super tasty, and add an interesting colour to the salad.

We sure never had round cucumbers back on the farm when I was a kid.  This plant is plenty prolific, so I’ll be pickling these this year as well.
