Maria: Hello?
Me: Hey -- it's me. Do you have any of those zucchini from your garden left at the store?
Maria: Sure do. One monster one. You want it?
Me: Yeah, if you don't mind.
Maria. It's really big.
Me: Well, you know that's how I like 'em!
I proceeded to the store.
And immediately looked around for a car seat to put this baby in!
I figured I'd better shoot it next to something to demonstrate scale, but I couldn't find a Shetland pony.
Thanks, 'Ria -- it (or at least half of it) was delicious!
And maybe next time? I'll take you seriously when you say somethin' is big. ;-)
THAT is when you start playing zucchini baseball.
ReplyDeleteFolks in my home town locked their vehicles ONLY during zucchini season, because otherwise they might have to take home the 2nd cousin of this guy.
