Like many, we are now harvesting cucumber, squash, and zucchini. My PT guru and fellow gardener, Carol, brought us eggplant as well. This is my favorite way to prepare eggplant. My sister served it to me years ago on a visit, and I was hooked. I mean really hooked. I think we made three trips to the HEB for ingredients and ate it ALL week. Found that this method is equally good using zucchini and squash. The refrigerator cucumber recipe is from Dawn Webb. Easy and delicious.

I noticed my wrists were sticking to my desk. This was a gradual awareness.
