I guess they'll be here soon

Look! My first zucchini. He's just a wee lad yet but I imagine he'll be ready for harvest in a few weeks. I understand they grow pretty quick. How exciting! There were a few green ones and a few yellow ones.
Maybe it's really working.

This whole nature thing is pretty darn cool. If I'm this excited over a zucchini, what am I going to be like when the pumpkins start?

LOL I think I took the same picture this weekend (only a little out of focus) - just need to post 'em!

And those pumpkins will be REAL exciting!! Would you believe my mom STILL has two that I picked this last fall!? They won't rot!! Granted, they're Rumbos - and I don't recall if the Rumbo is technically considered a pumpkin or a winter squash (which might last longer than your average pumpkin?) She sends pictures once in awhile as proof they're still around...

I'm like a kid when something appears in the garden, but then I'm like a kid most of the time.

Hey B

Glad the storm from the St Lawrence Valley provided rain but no damage. Patron saint of cooks by the way - so St L (not me, the other one) was probably worried about your tomatoes too.
The courgettes flowers look great - don't forget you can eat those too (either in a salad or if you are feeling brave in a very light batter with something like ricotta). Making myself hungry now!
