Six months ago, a year ago, I don’t have any sense of time anymore, a dear coworker was leaving the library and we sent her off with a little goodbye party, a cake, a card and best wishes in her new position at another library.
What pretty cakes! I'm so sorry so many of your librarian friends have retired or moved. Well, good for them, sad for you. And I hope you'll enjoy the Aremenian cucumbers as much as I do. Yes, you can feed a whole family with this variety!
We love the cucumbers! There's another one growing, (a muncher?) that looks more like a watermelon. I'm excited to see how it will turn out. Thank you so very much for giving them to me :)
Excellent, and EEK re the muncher! If it looks like a watermelon, it probably is. I grew those as well, except mine died out (cukes over-ran it). I might have mis-marked when I did transplants. The muncher should look like your everyday cucumber, but you can harvest it when it is narrow and smaller than your grocery cucumbers--giving it a tinier seed cavity/tender seeds. Or, let it grow to grocery-store size and have bigger, tougher seeds.
It's a watermelon! I'm so excited about this. Have never grown watermelon before. I'm glad for the mix-up, actually. We have plenty of cucumbers with all of the super-sized Armenian ones :)
