Kent has been in charge of the garden since I began working full-time. I just don't have the time to do all the things I have to do inside the house and in the rest of the yard to be able to take care of a garden too. He does a good job, and he likes it.
While it is easy to see when tomatoes are ripe and ready to be harvested, we have less success with the zucchini. They hide under the large leaves, grow to gargantuan proportions, and then only reveal themselves when they are enormous. Today we harvested this beauty. It was 21 inches long! I shall make zucchini rounds, dipped in panko and air fried, and served with balsamic drizzle. I'll also grate it up and make zucchini muffins. Here's to Summer and bounteous produce.
