Cucumbers, cucumbers and more cucumbers

Well our garden has exploded with cucumbers. My intention was to plant some and wait a week or so and then plant some more. Well I ended up planting a whole box and they were ready all at once. So I pickle.
There is something about putting up your own food for later that is so well just exciting and pioneerish and old and antique and I think you get the picture. Every time I open up my pantry and see these green jars looking at me I feel all settled and happy. Oh and do you see my chickens behind Evelyn? So lovely.

Garden bliss



Oops how did I miss that one. Seriously, its like they blow up over night, so this one is destined to become zucchini bread. So I chop it all up. Now I have enough for nine loaves of zucchini bread. Easy peasy:)
