Chickens Attacked The Garden

Well, I haven't had any zucchini recipes because guess what...

...chickens attacked the garden!

I caught the little stinks red handed!

This is what they left behind...

sad, pathetic, half-eaten zucchini!

Sad, sad day. 

(and kinda funny)

But, I had some friends give me a couple zucchini, so I'll have at least a couple of ideas for you soon.

Green Thumb?

Well, let's not get too crazy. I had an opportunity to have a free garden plot at work and jumped at the chance. The catch? I had to do everything myself except water it. Yuck. I hate dirt and bugs, but I was excited to have zucchini!

Here are pics of my garden and the first "fruits" of my labor. :-)

Can you spot the garden through the weeds? 

(They didn't weed around the garden, and I wasn't about to. 

It's enough work to weed the actual garden itself!)

I planted tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, onions, broccoli, and brussel sprouts. But, only the zucchini and cucumber are producing anything edible. That's OK, though, because I mainly wanted zucchini.

YAY!!! Zucchini plants!

Flowers = things are happening successfully!

Here are the 5 zucchini, 1 cucumber, and about 10 teeny onions.

And here they are all prettied!


So, get ready for some zucchini recipes...
