Early harvest at the Old School Garden patch

Starting to harvest some vegies from our garden patch at the Old School Garden in Clayton.
Cucumber, zuchinni, yellow squash and basil
Made me think of this dialog from one of my favorite movies, Animal House:

[Otter and Mrs. Wormer are in the supermarket vegetable section] 
Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Mine's bigger. 
[Marion looks questioningly at him] 
Eric 'Otter' Stratton: My cucumber. It's bigger. I think vegetables can be very sensuous, don't you? 
Marion Wormer: No, vegetables are sensual. People are sensuous. 
Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Right. Sensual. That's what I meant. My name's Eric Stratton. People call me Otter. 
Marion Wormer: My name's Marion. People call me Mrs. Wormer. 
Eric 'Otter' Stratton: Oh, we have a Dean Wormer at Faber.
Marion Wormer: How interesting. I have a husband named Dean Wormer at Faber. Still want to show me your cucumber? 

Well, yes. Yes we do.
