The End

Well it was a bitter sweet day today in the Foster home. If you have been following our garden from the beginning you got to see the progression of our gardening experience. It was very cold here about a week ago and it totally froze our plants, and now they are dead:( But the good news is I won't have to figure out what to do with the squash anymore. It was out of hand. Actually we still have a TON. We dug up the garden and found one last surprise as well. You can now come over and not have to leave with a zucchini every time.



Here is a normal sized zucchini next to the big mama.

The garden was a success, but I'm not too sad to see it go. The squash was getting out of control.

That's a HUGE zucchini! What are you going to make with it?

Hey Jenny, I am trying to see your blog but it's blocked.
And I think I will have zucchini bread for a year

Wow, your garden did well until the freeze.

How is school going? Did you enjoy UEA break?

That is a huge zucchini. My mother-in-law grew a huge one like that and she made zucchini boats with it. You just cut it in half the long way, gut the seeds, cook rice and hamburger and mix in cheese sauce or cream of chicken and put it on the zucchini and bake until soft. It was pretty good.
