I popped out to the garden tonight to feed the fish and spent a few seconds gathering ripe eggplant and tomatoes. As I passed the end of the garden, I caught a glimpse of "not-leaf" suspended from the edge, hidden by a curtain of leaves.
Oh. My. Goodness.
My daughter pointed out that August is host to Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbors Porch Day. To quote from the Holiday Insights page:
Experienced gardeners know that Zucchini is one of the most prolific plants in all of the gardening world...
By the time August arrives, gardeners are reaping far more zucchini than they can possibly use. Zucchini growers become desperate, as they try to give zucchini away to family, friends and everyone they encounter. By August, even non-gardeners have had enough. Everyone avoids you...
Desperate times calls for desperate measure. Its time to sneak over, under the cover of darkness, to your neighbors porch, and unload some zucchini.
Someone wondered why this "Zucchini... Day" is held on August 8. Think of 8/8, which is like infinity over infinity, capsized.
Luckily, I only had a couple of zucchini plants, so the harvest has been just right for us.
