I made 4 large loaves of Zucchini Bread, and a Zucchini/Fresh Tomato casserole (we had it with garlic bread - perfect summer meal!). Note the bird netting on the left - it is sheltering my new-this-year strawberry patch. Even though I cut my desires in half, I still have plenty to share! Hubby is especially happy to give his sister and brothers some of our produce. He even fed his dad about a dozen strawberries on Wednesday - his father's friend, in the Nursing Home, does not speak, but under instruction from dad, my husband shared some of the strawberries with him. Hubby talked and talked about that huge smile that came upon his face when he tasted "real" strawberries. This is what it's all about, eh?! I really love to grow vegetables and fruits so that all around me can enjoy. Now, I can hardly wait to see if those silly Hillbilly tomatoes actually bear before winter sets in...I bought them at the last minute. |
