Attack of the Killer Zucchini

It came from the garden – which is probably why everyone keeps running away, screaming. Of all the seeds I planted, the one I didn’t plant has done the best. This zucchini plant is a volunteer left from what I planted last year. Behind it are the snow peas, eggplant, and tomato that survived the transplant in Spring. The only thing that is coming in abundance is the zucchini.

I have a monster zucchini that came off the plant a week ago that I can’t seem to get rid of. I tried to give it to my next door neighbor, and she literally ran away. We tried to give it away through facebook, and got offered sugar snap peas instead.

Meanwhile The Girl shudders every time she goes by it. She says it look like a weird alien. But she’s still willing to eat my fried-spiced zucchini strips, so I guess I won’t worry too much.

Oddly enough, I”ll probably plant some next year. I’m rather enjoying all the zucchini bread. BTW, does anyone know if it freezes? The raw zuch, I mean, not the bread.
