Phallic food

I have found a unexpected satisfaction in growing vegetables in the our garden. We have potatoes, onions, carrots, peas, beans, tomatoes, courgettes, peppers (hopefully) and despite starting with many seedlings, just one remaining cucumber plant.

When we went on holiday, I moved the grow bag containing the cucumber plant on to a chair and the lone plant has had it's first born. Unfortunately, this picture shows the result... it tasted great however once it was freed.
