garden blend...

And now for the cucumber soup... I wanted a refreshing summertime side dish for meals, and this recipe in Real Simple looked intriguing enough to give a whirl. It blends basil (from Jana's garden - yay!) and jalapenos and onion and lime juice. Salt and pepper. Sour cream. And lots of cucumbers. Don't wrinkle your nose. It is really good! My roommate Renee says so. Cucumbery, or course with a melding of basil and lime juice followed by a deep but brief and unexpected heat from the jalapenos.
