Not Like The Other

Thanks for the words of encouragement everyone. I do love blogging, it's just some days that I feel like I have nothing interesting to say.

And this could very well be one of these days, but here is the deal:
We have a garden.
We also participate in a crop share.
This becomes a problem when both are producing at the same time.

Take a look at the below. One of these squash is not like the other (notice the ballpoint pen placed for dimension).
One of these came from the crop share.
The rest came from the garden.

Which gets me to thinking, perhaps we should start our own crop share. I mean, if our garden is producing better veggies than a self-proclaimed farm-gril maybe we could swing it. I am after all from rural Wisconsin.

So, the real disturbing thing about this photo is that I took it yesterday afternoon.
AFTER, I had floated a few friends some squash from the garden.
I was still left with this.

And then I came home from work and picked 5 more, and this is how I feel about it:


Summer Squash--comin gout of my ears. And we are going to have another batch by the end of the weekend. For sure. What's a girl to do with so much squash????
