AVOCADO-CUCUMBER SOUP
This simple but elegant soup graced the table at one of the monthly luncheons held by the Thursday Afternoon Cooking Club, an organization of Wichita, Kan., women that has been meeting since 1894. Each month, the 24 women of the club gather over their best tableware to share recipes and cooking tips. English cucumbers work well for this recipe, but cucumbers fresh from the garden are a great choice if you have them. The soup could also be blended and served chilled in small cups and passed around on a tray for a cocktail party.

CUCUMBER AND AVOCADO SOUP
Very fresh tasting summer soup that is very healthy, too. Perfect use of home grown cucumbers. Very time consuming, but a nice treat. Cook time is chill/marinating time.
