Cucumber Cactus

*Toothpicks, cut in half and spaced and then push the halved toothpicks  into cucumber for cactus look as desired

*2 Large Cucumbers, one end sliced off to the size cactus desired

*1 Cantaloupe, cut in half (or make one half larger for variety) and then cut the ends off of the cantaloupe halves,  slice off just enough of the cantaloupe to make room for the end of a whole cucumber to fit into the cut hole, which you will cut.

Note: After cutting cantaloupe in two pieces/halves, I removed the seeds and flesh of the cantaloupe.

Enjoy!
