Sounds wonderful.  I love cucumber salads and I am always looking for new ones to use at BBQs.

I got the ingred. to make this salad.  While making it I accidently hit the bowl and it dumped right into the garbage.  But the good news was I had enough to make another bowl of it and it tastes great.

LOL
Throwing it away would actually take all the fun out of eating it and still losing the weight.
