There I was, just minding my own business when, from out of nowhere, this guy jumps me with a bag full of zucchini.
"If you know what's good for you," he says in a low gruff voice, "you'll take this zucchini and keep your mouth shut!"
Then, he stuffs a recipe for zucchini bread into my shirt pocket and like Zorro, mysteriously disappears into the night.
"Damn!" I muttered to myself, "This zucchini thing is getting out of hand. That's the fourth time this week."
Yes, once again it's that time of year when every gardeners thoughts turn to zucchini - and what to do with all their damned zucchini. If only the zucchini didn't all turn up at the same time (Tuesday, August 4th, 4:23 pm).
It's true!
Within the last week, several friends and neighbours have tried to slip me the
zucchini. It's as if every gardener in town is searching to find a home for
their surplus vegetables.
