This week would be a great time to make some delicious pickles! You could also consider pickling your squash in addition to your cucumbers. The summer squash are also great on the grill. Slice in lengthwise, brush on some oil and season with garlic salt. Grill over medium heat a few minutes on each side. Tasted great last week with lemon squash.
