Too Many Cucumbers

I spent about an hour tonight pulling up weeds in my forgotten garden. (It wasn't really that I forgot about it; I just haven't had the time to deal with it lately.)

The tomato plants are finally starting to yield a little bit, but not much. The cucumbers however, are going to town! I found a few real doozies out there hiding under the leaves.

What am I supposed to do with all these?! I don't need yet another job I don't have time for, like pickling them.

There's only so much cucumber salad we can eat! Been meaning to try some cuke soup but haven't yet. Once we get some good red tomatoes, I can use both vegetables to make my mom's great gazpacho recipe, (well, it's actually my Spanish Aunt Pili's recipe, but I got it from my mom.) Till those tomatoes turn red though, hmmmm....Can you freeze cukes? I think not.

Any one have any great, easy recipes for me?
