It taste’s like something!

We picked our first vegetable from Front Yard Farm last night!

picked our first cucumber!

A sweet slice cucumber!

Nathan peeled it, and sliced it for our garden salads (this is a staple dinner on hot nights when I don’t want to cook - fresh greens from the garden, and a mix of what I have on hand from the farmer’s market plus a farm fresh boiled egg)! Nathan took the first bite of the cucumber, and I watched to see how his face reacted to the taste. He smiled, “Wow it actually tastes like something.” Like, something? “Yeah, it tastes like something instead of just tasting like water!”

So I popped in a slice, and realized it did taste like something.
It tasted like a cucumber fresh picked minutes ago from our garden! Delicious, really.
