MysticWicks endorsement: "I've always, always regarded the Discordians as being people who chose to be Discordians because they can't be arsed to actually do any work to develop a relationship with a specific deity, they were too wishy-washy to choose just one path, and they just want to be a mishmash of everything and not have to work at learning about rituals or traditions or any such thing as that."

Cool as a Cucumber, but Hot Enough to Burn Your Face Off

I make a salad that is somewhat similar to this.  It uses cucumber, onion, red apple chunks or red grapes, poblano peppers, white wine balsamic and EVOO.

It has that sweet, spicy, crunchy thing going on.

It's like a variant of salsa.  Yum.

Wow, that just gave me an idea  :lulz:

Bake up some corn tortillas (maybe flour) with a touch of cinnamon (no sugar) and chop everything smaller and use it as a dip.....

Well, mangos put together with avocado and lime with cilantro (and a dash of salt!) makes an awesome salsa--so why not?

I love cucumber salads!

I sometimes do a  Korean dish of cucumbers, thinly sliced yellow onion (soaked in cold water first to tone down the assertiveness), and toasted sesame seeds dressed with sweet- and-spicy chili paste and rice vinegar. It's called oi muchim, for reference.
