And the Homegrown Zucchini Has It.

One of these zucchinis is homegrown.  One of these zucchinis is from a farmer's market.

Left- Farmer's Market.  Right- Homegrown.
How awesome is that?  Notice how long and sleek and beautiful the one on the right is.  Not a scratch on it!

Notice how marked up the one on the left is.  How disappointing.

Good thing this is only the first homegrown zucchini of the season- many more to come.  Nick and I are really enjoying our patch in the community garden.  It's even more fun when there are things to harvest!  If you aren't a fan of gardening, you should try it.  It's so worth it.

  2. Wow - looks wonderful! I am still waiting for my zucchini to grow... Hopefully the groundhogs will leave them alone. My fingers are crossed!

  3. Homegrown veggies always look so much better. When I was a child we would grow so much zucchini that we would have to eat it almost every night. My favorite recipes are zucchini bread and chocolate zucchini cake, which I know sounds weird but I swear it super delicious:)
