We pulled by the plot this afternoon and it's positively exploded with zucchini flowers.
I'm not complaining, mind you. I do love zucchini in its many guises. I love stuffed zucchini (when you've neglected to check every day and one enormous one pops out all of a sudden), I love zucchini lasagna (where you slice tender young zucchini into ribbons and use them instead of pasta, layered between tomato sauce and oodles of cheese), I love zucchini stir-fried, sauteed, in a salad and smothered in mint yogurt. All good.
I know that I'll be sick of it sooner or later, but it's been so long since I was in a zucchini producing household that I've forgotten that heart-sinking sensation of seeing the giant green monster lurking behind a leaf. I can't wait.
