Zucchini




This weekend we ate our first zucchini from the garden that we planted this summer. The owner of our apartments gave me permission to pull up a bunch of weeds at the top of our parking lot and plant a garden, so I did. It was tons of work but I just love it for some reason. There's something about having your hands in the soil. We planted zucchini, two kinds of squash, eggplant, tomato, green pepper, canteloupe, watermelon, brocolli and sunflowers. We'll see what we get. It's peaceful there. And Parker loves putting dirt in his mouth and gagging on weeds when I'm not watching him close enough.
