Yeah, it's vegetables again. 3 things:

Some 'friend' foisted two zucchini plants on me, and they must be friggin' parthenocarpic (translation: 1 flower = 1 zucchini). I've only got 3 squash already, and it's too much and they're just going to keep coming. If you have a use for some zucchini, tell me. And no, I don't want a zucchini bread recipe, unless it's gluten-free. I already have a bitchin' veggie chili recipe; what I don't have is the time to cook.

On a more useful note, I've got 2 pots of kale to transplant. If you don't know, kale = food from October through May. Even if you don't like the leaves, you'll love the flowers (March-May), which are kinda like broccoli, but not.

Also, I've got lots of lettuce. Really. Need 5 or more heads? Talk to me. Otherwise I'm going to be forced to start a lettuce seed factory in my yard, and no one wants that. You shouldn't be this picky, but I'll tell you anyway: Slobolt, Buttercrunch, Red Sails, Salad Bowl, Valmaine.

PM me, or the terrorists have already won.

i'm happy to take zucchini off your hands, i have dumpster-horde experience with them. you'd be amazed at all the things one can make.
zucchini latkes are sacrilegiously delish.

Okay, the plan for tonight is that I finish my frisbee game (Magnuson, at around 9), call Langston, and he tells me where you guys are. If it's a reasonable location, I go home, pick some veggies, then deliver them.

So, if you want some lettuce or my 3 zucchini tonight, find Langston before I call him.

I won't be around next week; I expect there will be a zucchini deluge the first week of August, after I get back from Portland (OSCON, if any of you nerds are going).

P.S. The kale are spoken for.

Thanks for the salad greens, Greg! He came by around 10:00 last night with about 5lbs of fresh greens, mostly the super tasty Valmaine. By 5lbs I mean a PCC bag completely full of greens had cut less than a couple hours previous. I washed it all (no bugs, not poisons!), stored it in the fridge and today had an excellent salad with goat cheese & Neuman's Caesar dressing. Would recommend, excellent quality. Get on this offer!
