Hubert Schachinger – As Cool as a Cucumber


This summer has been a very hot summer. It's been keeping us up every night, and our days have become lazy, sleepy, and slow. The heat has been simply too much. But, no need to worry – there is a solution – and it's cheap, simple, and easy to get.

Last week, Hubert Schachinger, an old friend of mine, told me the following story. It was about his mother cutting up cucumbers when it got hot. And, cooling off was all very simple. A piece of cucumber held firmly in place on one's forehead was all that was needed. And, it worked every time. Cooling off took just a few minutes.

And, cucumbers are good for other things, too. They protect against illness, are great for your skin, and cucumbers contain much that is needed for a good healthy life. Cucumbers are great, and, when mixed with a salad make a wonderful meal.

This summer is set to continue. It's going to stay hot. So, cut up a cucumber, put a piece on your forehead, and, you, too will soon become as cool as a cucumber. And, that's a cool way to be!

Hubert Schachinger – He's as cool as a cucumber, and his mother always knew best.
