"It is what it is, but we make it what it will be..."

I love it!  I've always disliked the first part of that quote...and I've heard it a lot.

Thinking of Zucchini

 

Somehow this lovely quote makes me think of the zucchini in the garden patch...there are some serious Big Guys lurking under the leaves.  I give those to my hens.  First, I slice off a few openings since the chickens don't seem to like to peck through the skin.  They hollow the zucchini out nicely, then I compost the rest. 

 

Went over town to pick up 35 lbs of fresh peaches.  I quickly picked three new, tender squash to take to the friend.  She was so grateful.  Said she has a friend that passes on the Big Guys...why do we do that? :)   

 

 

 

Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would
be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night.

—Rainer Maria Rilke
