Why would cucumber not be a nutritious and delicious part of a woman's diet? They are low calorie, and have a wide range of nutrients.

Hendrick's Gin.

That is all.

Hmmmm. Vegetables are good for you. I never knew that.

Cucumber is a fruit subby.

Only cucumber? Eggplants, zucchini and several others there to fill the gap. ;)

DeathLemur: Hendrick's Gin.

That is all.

Hendrick's is a staple in our house. Its fantastic for drinks but also works very well in any creamy vegetable soup...especially tomato soup. Just drizzle some on the soup and serve...great flavor.
