This has become the staple of our weekly lunches. Zucchini Slice, or the vegetable by which is know know in our house as "that bloody zuchinni". We also have heaps of eggs so it make sence to make a big batch each Sunday to use for work lunches. 
Every year I plant zuchinnis this happens, every bloody year!! I am harvesting five to six massive ones every four days. Will I ever learn??


The rest of the garden is going great guns too... my cabbages are MASSIVE!

The potatoes are smothering the pumpkins. I am about to finish laying out Bill Mollison's book on potatoes. He will be so proud of these pictures when I show him...it seems I did learn a thing or two from that book.



I found a new way to support my beans, this old lattice. I have spent years with strings and poles trying to support them...what a fool! I just weaved it between some droppers and TA-DA!!! Never will I have to lose time to that consuming task...it takes a woman to think of these things.


Lastly I am really happy with how my tomatoes have done this year..sure beats all the bad tomato moments of last year. 
Hows your garden growing??

All my garden is growing at the moment is thistles and weeds! I promised myself I'd get in there this week and deal with it. Otherwise I never will!

Let me know if you've still got too many zucchini, I'm happy to take some off your hands - I heart zucchini slice and will be needing some for lunch when I'm back at work next week!

Things certainly seem better this year here too but I am having to use a lot of water. I can't wait till Bill's book comes out but I suppose it will still be ages yet?

Your Garden is looking great and what huge cabbages, do you add compost to your soil?
My garden is doing well despite no rain for sometime just handwatering,plenty of zucchinis too so made up a batch of pickles.
They also taste good sliced and cooked on the bbq with a little olive oil,garlic and cumin.
