Granny's Avocado Cucumber Soup

2 med Cuccumbers. seed if the seeds are large. peel if waxed or not grown organically. chop, reserve 1 C
2 x Nice and ripe avocados, pitted and peeled
5 x Cloves of garlic
1/2 cup Packed fresh parsley don't bother to mince, just wash
2 cup Plain non fat yoghurt
1 cup Water (or 1 C ice cubes)
3 x Chopped scallions
    White pepper

 Method :
In a bowl, combine all but 1 C of the cuccumber, avocadoes, garlic, parsley, yoghurt, water or ice cubes, pepper. In a blender puree this mixture in batches until smooth, transfering it to a bowl or pitcher.. When everything is blended, add in the reserved cup of cukes and the scallions.
Mix and chill at least 1 hour.
Variation: I don't recommend this, but I did see someone put vodka into his bowl of soup once. He said that if we can mix vodka with tomato juice, why not with avocado and cuccumbers....
