Already, wow, are you serious?! Congrats on your zucchini. ... sounds like a wonderful dinner. Your dogs like veggies? I’ve noticed at times only small bags of rice are available in my local stores these days. We eat a lot of rice, but I didn’t think it was that popular with everyone else.

I have only one zucchini plant planted out so far, as I’ve been nervous to plant warm weather veggies because of our freezes last week. I’m still waiting on planting out tomatoes as well. My cool weather crops are holding up nicely though.

I have planted out some calendula, snapdragon, english daisy, dianthus and a few other little flower seedlings I think will tough enough if it turns cold again.

Where are you located?

And yes, I am serious about the zuks. And my dogs, Irish Setters, love veggies. Green beans cooked or frozen, zuks fresh or cooked. Oh and potatoes, do not get in the way when I am peeling potatoes for fries or mashed because the peels belong to them. Potato peels are like candy to them.

I give them raw carrots as a treat but they do not digest them at all ... they chew them up and then poop them out just like they chewed them. Cooked carrots are better and digested by them.

I pulled some radish from the garden last week and gave them a couple, leaves and all. Cashmere (female, 85 lbs) took hers and ran around like crazy then hunkered down and ate. Aladden (male, 125 lbs) just stood there and chewed the whole thing up right there.

Don't ask me what they do with watermelons!!!
