I keeps things interesting!<br />A friend gave me some giant zucchinis. I do not like them well enough to figure out what to make with them so I have to admit the pigs really enjoyed them. I AM going to make a Mexican recipe called "calabacitas." with the smaller ones. It's really simple, too.<br />Chop the zucchini into small cubes, add same amount of sweet corn cut off the cob or from a frozen packet, some jalapeno or other chili,<br />one chopped red sweet pepper. Saute all in some butter until tender, add salt and pepper and eat hot or cold.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-55163355795343199342014-08-03T18:25:51.203+01:002014-08-03T18:25:51.203+01:00My friend had a recipe for jam made with zucchini ...My friend had a recipe for jam made with zucchini and jello. And it did taste just like the flavor of jello you used. Peach, strawberry, etc. I have that recipe somewhere, should find it. With so many courgettes, can't have too many recipes. She also boiled up her zucchini till it was soft and used it in her meatloaf instead of milk or stock. tana50https://www.blogger.com/profile/04610911774620693819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-61512488290519934612014-08-03T15:58:26.222+01:002014-08-03T15:58:26.222+01:00Yes, grated by hand.

I am so looking forward to Spring - we now have a screened verandah where I plan to grow some summer vegies in pots and they will be safe from marauding kangaroos, feral foxes, rabbits, pigs and even our cows ! <br />AussieCheryl : )Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-56416889553566724002014-08-03T10:33:38.957+01:002014-08-03T10:33:38.957+01:00They do look delicious!

Some of our favourite dinners were things that originally happened when the 'proper' ingredients were not to hand. I do now tend to write down what I've thrown in, just in case one is a 5 star recipe. Then I find little lists on the back of envelopes and wonder what they were - like a squirrel hoarding nuts!CharlottePhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16693808113369554138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-38011587251054737682014-08-03T08:18:27.407+01:002014-08-03T08:18:27.407+01:00Burgers look tasty.

I can't wait to plant all our favourite veg in it!<br /><br />Also wanted to share a link with you, that I came across just now. It reminds me of what you're working on at the moment. <br /><br />http://www.quiltingdaily.com/blogs/quilting-daily/archive/2014/07/17/how-to-select-the-best-thread-for-thread-sketching.aspx?a=cr140802&mid=563204&rid=13586081<br /><br />I don't work for them in any way, just to clarify. I love mixed media and am simply a subscriber to emails. Anyway, thought you might enjoy the article. <br /><br />- Cynthia from Oz :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
