This Can Only End With Donald Sutherland Doing The Screamy-Pointy Thing

Is it gauche or just obligatory to quote Sassoon (Siegfried, not Vidal. Obviously) when you're writing about the First World War? I can never tell

F-u-c-k-ing frottage or frottage and then f-ucking? Hmmm? The green haired gal has quite the choice ahead of her. Between the body snatchers, passion flowers and jealous!Spock should be a swell time had by all! *big grin*

There is probably a terrible fanfic in there somewhere.

Ya think?!?

I know it's been a while, but I'm not so far removed from fandom that I can't see exactly how this shit would go down. :)

My cucumber plant just turned its toes up. I've only ever successfully grown cucumbers once, indoors. They completely overtook the back window and I had to tie them to the curtain rod for support.

Yes, you can pickle mature cucumbers. Slice them (peel them first if you're posh) and cover them with your favourite mix of pickling fluid.

Ah. I shall have to try pickling some if I end up with a glut, which is looking increasingly likely. I started mine off undercover, since you mention growing them indoors. I started the seedlings in the greenhouse and probably dumped them in the gro-bag too young because they started showing signs of the dreaded seedling blight. They only started to really thrive when I put them in deep pots and back under cover. Of course, they're now too fucking massive for any of my little pound-shop plastic greenhouse and they're doing their bodysnatchers bit all over the deck.

Yeah, you just know that it was August when the alien pods started popping up Mill Valley. Seriously, who would notice a bunch of ripe cucumbers and zucchini in August?

You never leave me unsatisfied. I always love reading your posts. ^_^
