ZUCCHINI TWO WAYS

IT IS A PRETTY SAD DAY WHEN YOU HAVE TO BUY OR ASK SOMEONE FOR A ZUCCHINI SO THAT YOU CAN MAKE BREAD. WE HAVE REALLY TRIED TO GROW A GARDEN AGAIN THIS YEAR BUT AS YOU CAN SEE BY THE PICTURES IT HASNT BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL. BUT IT WAS TIME FOR ZUCCHINI BREAD AND I HAD TO ASK FOR ONE.

WHAT MY ZUCCHINI SHOULD LOOK LIKE
