Send More Zucchini Please

This year's garden has had a lasting effect on our home.

What started as an attempt to use up an over abundance of zucchini has morphed into something entirely different.

An obsession perhaps. An addiction more likely. It struck again last night.

Yes, it's true... we've become addicted to zucchini bread. Over the past 2 months or so DQ has made countless (at least a dozen) loaves from this recipe and it never lasts more than a day or 2.

The finished product may not be pretty and it certainly isn't all that photogenic but it's delicious. DQ and Bruce battle over the ends (unless I swipe them first) and we all enjoy it for breakfast, lunch and any other time of day. It's really good stuff.

Unfortunately we have no more zucchini in our fridge. Must. Buy. More.

I've got zucchini and I'd be happy to send it to you but I don't think it would survive the USPS!

That's just a mean post, Hill.

It's been a year for zucchini bread here too!
One great tip I found this year is to toss the shredded zucchini with a tablespoon of sugar and let it drain in a colander for about 20 minutes. Lots of liquid drains out and makes a lighter bread. Then my kid really likes to drink the green juice!.
