I was out weeding in the garden when the neighbour came out with the kids and gave me this large zucchini. We have had a lot of rain this summer so the vegetables are growing fast and large. It looks as if she had just plucked it out of the garden, it needs washing off. They were off to give an even larger one to another neighbour up the street. Apparently they have a large family so it would be put to good use.
The children told me they have a live quail. It is a pet, given to them by a friend. Their mom said they are excited, waiting for eggs, but she is now thinking it is male. Oh well!

That is definitely a huge zucchini
I love neighbors who are being neighborly like that. Although it's quite a struggle for introverts like me who likes to be left alone most of the time. But also wants to keep the peace in the neighborhood, you know what I mean? Lol
How's the zucchini?
Yummy Zucchini! Hugs, Valerie
That's a giant zucchini!
LOL..I thought this was going to be about the zucchini being male.... They may have google about the quail.
Sometimes, it is hard to decide whether it is male or female. One has to find out using the knowledge one has on certain species.
What a delightful zucchini, Christine. I'll bet it tastes great!
Never focused on this but good to know

I love fresh veggies from the garden. Nice that your neighbor shared with you. :) It will be interesting to see what happens with the quail.

Zucchini Bread. My favorite way to use them. We had a stray male cat that had 6 kittens...we thought wrong. HaHa He went from Rusty to Rustina.

the large zucchini reminds me of those grown by my late mom ,she would like to share the bliss of her garden with other around as well :)
I need to check if I have any zucchini yet. :)

It's the time of year when everyone starts giving us zucchini.
The wonderful gardens around my home have been planted and cared for by my daughter and SIL. When they come they leave me goodies and carry the rest home to share with their friends and neighbors.
Big zucchini, great!
That is a large zucchini :)
All the best Jan
Oh yum, love zucchini. Interesting about the quail. We once had a turtle my son named Big Al. He was about ten when she arrived and the name came from a movie character. After what seemed like a long time she laid an egg. Son decided to call her Big Alice from then on. I just called her Alice. Kids!
Zucchini is one of those vegetables that you have to keep an eye on or before you know it, it's so big and full of seeds.
