cucumber watch


sorry, couldn't get the same weird thing as last year's, it -was- a mutant. But, you have to admit this is not bad really, even if it misses the size and the curviness.
Also, the paprikas is the greenhouse are doing mighty fine. The billygoat, who is for the chop, found out how to get out through the electric fence, so he's nearer to his maker then planned - a few more weeks to goat curry yet, as Jozsi, our chosen butcher says we could do with a bit more fattening. Busy black-cherry jam making - collected a bucketful at Joli neni's in the morning, stoning took 3 hours, than gone to pleasant porkolt-bogracs party to Gita's, and coming back found Jani bacsi on our doorstep with yet another bucket of picked black cherries, so we are sort of obliged to get them preserved, too, so Alan is stoning in the kitchen with Jimmy (Hendrix).
