What's for dinner tonight

Cucumber and Strawberry Salad
2 American Cucumbers
12 oz large strawberries
Salt and freshly milled pepper
pinch of caster sugar (I used regular sugar and put it in the food processor)
3 tablespoons dry white wine (I used chardonnay)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
A few borage flowers for garnish (I used pansies)

Peel cucumbers. Hull berries and slice thickly.
Arrange berries and cucumbers in alternating circles.
Season with salt, pepper, sugar. Spoon the wine over the salad
and sprinkle with tarragon. Chill. Before serving,
Garnish with a few blue borage flowers. (I used pansies.)
