Before you head to the store to purchase some cucumbers, here are 5 things that you should know. 1. What Types of Cucumbers Can You Find at the Store?. There are 3 main types of cucumbers that you can find in grocery stores these days. The classic cucumber is long, green, mostly straight, but slightly curved. It is what most of us think of first when we think of cucumbers. They have small seeds on the inside that aren't fully developed. If the cucumber had been allowed to continue to grow on the vine, the seeds would be further developed and ready to be the next cucumber.

Rotel Chicken Spaghetti Is My Dump and Go Dinner On A Hot Summer Day

This Rotel Chicken Spaghetti is built for the nights when there's no time to stand over a stove. The slow cooker handles the chicken, the sauce, and most of the work, leaving just a pot of pasta to boil before dinner is ready.

This cornbread hamburger pie is the first thing gone at family dinner

Picture beef stew and fresh cornbread coming together in one dish. That is exactly what this pie delivers, and it never lasts long once it hits the table. Seasoned ground beef and melted cheddar sit under a savory cornbread topping made with creamed corn and buttermilk. It is closer to a shepherd's pie than a traditional pot pie, with no crust or mashed potatoes involved.

The One Thing I Always Check Before Buying Blueberries

When shopping for fresh blueberries there is one thing that I always look for before I put a container into my basket or cart. Right now is a great time to be buying blueberries in the store. We are in the peak blueberry season for much of the northern half of the country. That means the berries are cheaper and they are fresher. If you live in that part of the country, the blueberries aren't traveling very far.

Local Pup Looking For New Home After Owner Did Not Want to Give Proper Vet Care

A local and dedicated foster-based dog rescue in Massachusetts, Great Dog Rescue New England (GDRNE), would like you to meet Carl, a joyful young pup who recently came into their care. According to the rescue, “Poor Carl was found roaming the streets of Tennessee with a bad leg. His owner was eventually located, but didn't want to give him the vet care he needed, so they surrendered him to the pound. Carl is looking for a second chance at an active home, and he hopes you'll give it to him!”

I wanted ribs but didn't have a grill. Here is what I did!

These dry rub baked ribs are made in the oven, so you can get tender, BBQ-style ribs without standing over a hot grill. The recipe uses a sweet and smoky dry rub, then bakes low and slow until the ribs are tender enough to pull apart.

I Always Add This One Unique Thing To My Tuna Salad, and My Family Loves It

Cucumber tuna salad only turns watery for one reason: too much moisture from the cucumbers or the tuna. Mini cucumbers keep seed content low, and if regular cucumbers are used instead, scooping out the seeds first prevents the salad from getting soggy. Draining the tuna completely before mixing does the same job on the other side of the bowl.

Want help picking out the perfect ribeye steak from the store? Learn about the one thing I learned more recently that helps me pick out the most flavorful steaks.

I found the church cookbook recipe that made me stop buying pound cake

My Favorite No-Bake Pineapple Cream Dessert for Summer

No-Bake Pineapple Cream Dessert: A Summer Memory Tucked in Every Spoonful. On a blisteringly sunny afternoon, nothing soothes the kitchen like a dessert that tastes like a memory you can reach with a spoon. This No-Bake Pineapple Cream Dessert layers a buttery, crisp crust with a velvety filling that carries bright pineapple, vanilla, and a gentle whisper of cream. The crust crunch gives way to a creamy, silky center that stays cool against the heat, its pineapple pockets popping with tropical tang. Each bite is airy and comforting, a nostalgic nod to summer picnics and porch-swing chats. It’s light enough to finish before sundown but rich enough to linger on the tongue, a crowd-pleasing finish that feels both familiar and fresh. It’s the kind of dessert that invites you to slow down and savor every sunlit moment.

This German Chocolate Poke Cake Is So Gooey, the Dessert Table May Need Security

Rich chocolate cake gets poked, soaked, and loaded with sweet coconut-pecan goodness in the kind of dessert that makes restraint feel wildly unrealistic. Every hole pulls in creamy filling, so each slice stays moist, fudgy, and packed with gooey flavor from top to bottom. The topping brings buttery pecans, chewy coconut, and that unmistakable caramel-like richness that made old-fashioned German chocolate cake a family favorite in the first place. It is soft, sticky, decadent, and just messy enough to guarantee people scrape their plates clean.
