My zucchinis are growing like mad. I went out yesterday, after not seeing any baby zucchinis on my plants on Saturday, and found another 9 huge, fully ripe zucchinis! My fridge isn't big enough for this! So I started to look up zucchini recipes, especially ones that can be frozen and I found many.
It was cool and rainy this morning, so I made a batch of zucchini muffins. They turned out fantastic! I also grated several cups of additional zucchini to freeze for future muffins. Right now I have a pot of zucchini soup on the stove and a zucchini bread in the oven. I think that will be enough for today. But tomorrow I will make more.
I was able to finish the centre part of the Rosewood Cottage quilt. Yesterday, while at Walmart I found a piece of light blue fabric that will work for the inner border. I have already started to applique the outer border, but there still is a lot to do. This is what I have so far.
And here is another pretty lily from my garden.
It has stopped raining and my cooking is done, so I am going out into the garden. These wonderful blooms don't look after themselves! I noticed some red lily beetle larva on this plant and I want to take them off before they eat the whole thing. The Red Lily Beetle is an interesting bug, but very detrimental to lily plants. I wrote about it here.

What a great looking quilt. I like zucchini patties. They are similar to potato pancakes and can be the vegetarians' burger. Your garden flowers are very pretty.
Holy moly, you are surrounded by such beauty!! Between your quilt and your garden! My daylilies have not bloomed yet. Zucchini muffins. Yum. Sometimes I grate carrot and throw it in the mix.
Your muffins look so yummy. Makes me want to go and make some. Your quilt and garden look fantastic. They show what commiment will produce.
I *love* your Rosewood quilt so far, Hetty! Wonderful colours and fabrics. I think you'll be so pleased with it when it's done!
