OK, you guys are all going to laugh at me when I say this, but next summer I want to try growing zucchini.

I'm serious. It's great with beef, tomatoes, onion, and garlic in a stir fry. It's lovely sliced up and steamed with yellow squash with nothing more than some pepper on it. It's probably going to be scrumptious in this cream-of soup I've got in the crock pot right now. I like zucchini bread and would make some now except I shouldn't eat any. I even plan to try scraping strips off it with a peeler and serving it like pasta. (Hey. No making fun of a desperate woman. I haven't had pesto, marinara, or alfredo in months.)

Anybody have a lot of zucchini they don't know what to do with? I can help out. I'm generous that way.

Hmm, it's probably more finicky than hand-pollinating corn. (That, I've done.)

Just lay in a supply of Q-tips and keep a chart.

Oh man, is it that bad? (weak grin)
