Kids love it too!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• cucumbers
• salt
• water
• vinegar
• sugar
• a smile

1. 
    

   Pick some fresh cucumbers out of your garden.

2. 
    

   Wash them up and peel down the sides leaving only little green strips.
   
   I leave three thin strips - some people leave more.
   
   This leaves a nice dash of color for your lovely cucumber dish.

3. Slice them nice and thinly, but not too thin or they'll fall apart!

4. 
    

   Give them just a little sprinkle of salt.
   
   
   
   
   Mix them with equal parts of:
   
   
   Water
   
   Sugar
   
   Vinegar

5. 
    

   Place them in the fridge for a few hours.
   
   They will stay in the fridge for about a week.

6. 
    

   Don't forget to save a few to put on your eyes
   after all that hard work!

8. Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the
   craft. Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can’t have your kayak and heat it too.

Tips & Warnings

• I read today in the paper that the Pope was a soccer goalie in his youth.
• Apparently, even as a young man he tried to stop people from scoring.”
