Tabouli

Cucumbers are coming in very fast.

Hubby and I have not been able to keep up with our garden this year.
We spent our 10 year anniversary in MIssion Hospital in Ashville NC.

We were involved in a motorcycle accident. Hubby broke 3 ribs and a wrist.
I ended up with a lot of roadburn on both arms and shoulders.

That is also why I ended up with a new camera. My old one was smashed.

Our garden and weeds are coming in faster than we can keep up, but I am getting back
in the groove slowly.

Just thankful we are both still here. It could have been worse.

Here is one way I love to use an excess of cucumbers, Tabouli. This recipe came out of my
Mastercook Software.

I did substitute couscous for the bulger in this picture’s occasion.
