YUMMY! First zuchini of the season

[hoodat]

Had the first zuchini out of my garden yesterday. I got a bit anxious and harvested it small (about 4 or 5 inches) but it was delicious tossed in the wok with some onions and garlic. In a couple of months the neighbors and I will all be sick of them but right now they are really good.

No zucchini yet, but my yellow squash is going crazy --

(I started some zucchini and yellow squash indoors back in February when I was desperate to see *anything* green and then put it out way too early when it outgrew its little peat pot. Its companions all froze to death, this is the only one that lived.)

I'm so jealous! I just now started my seeds inside for zucchini... and you guys are eating it!

Silkie, I am in the same boat. I direct seeded my summer squash a couple of weeks ago and now have babies about 1-2 inches tall. Like you, I'm a very long way from harvest.

Hoodat - I envy you gardening in an area where you don't have to wait for late frosts!! Enjoy your harvest!

I have harvested over 10 lbs of summer squash and zucchini so far this season.

Going to be a productive year!
