GRANDMA'S CUCUMBER AND ONION SALAD
Both of my grandmothers made this salad every summer when their gardens produced baskets of cucumbers. It's a cool, fresh side dish for any meal. One of my grandmas omitted the green pepper and the celery seed. She also put ice in it to chill it quickly and cut the vinegar taste.

OLD FASHION CUCUMBER SALAD
I have always loved cucumbers in vinegar. My grandmother used to fix them and this tastes like hers. I can remember her saying that she started hers like her pickles so getting most of the water out of the cucumbers must be the trick. I can remember her putting left over onions and tomatoes into the vinegar mixture after a meal. Laura and I love this in the summer.
