I love cucumbers!  I like the english ones but I’ll take the regular ol’ ones any day.  Oh, and I recently was introduced to lemon cucumbers, which are round little things that taste amazing!

If your garden is overflowing with cucumbers (mine is not, but I am buying a lot on sale) then this compilation of cucumber recipes should keep you busy this summer:

hint:  there’s a link to pickle recipes at the bottom of that page 🙂

Personally I’m fond of homemade garlic refrigerator pickles.   I used the recipe on the Ball Kosher Dill pickling spices jar, but halve the vinegar and add tons of fresh or freeze-dried dill and sliced garlic cloves.  YUM!
