Each one of these squash delights me, since childhood. Dip them egg, flour, salt, and pepper, or smother them with Italian sauce, or lightly steam them with salt, pepper and a dollop of butter. 

When I grow zucchinni, I don't have enough relatives, neighbors or friends.

That yellow summer squash made me hungry, Zucchini not so much.

More interesting than butterflies.

I like that moth as well Thomas.  Always thought they were more attractive or interesting.  Probably because they're not as common.

Kathy,

You did mentioned there is strip mining a few miles from your home. I wonder if that was what causing a disruption in normal climate patterns in your area.

Your description of how chickens are treated at chicken farms is cruel and unusual practices.

Randall,

That is true for me... To give BBQing meat will prove difficult for my family and I. We tried BBQ Tofu and it tasted good. We also tried BBQed broccoli mixed a few sausages and that was delicious.

Kathy, I'm surprised you haven't had much rain. We received about 5 inches last week, including 2.5" in one overnight storm!  Fields are flooded and my garden soggy.  Frog and toad populations will explode--mosquitoes, too.

I don't know if there's any such thing as a "halfie", but I'm about half and half vegetarian/carnivore. I hardly eat beef, but like chicken and fish.

Thomas, that is how they are electrocuted. They are hung alive, upside down by their feet and their heads and stuck in water that is then hit with electric.

I have noticed that sometimes when I prepare chicken for dinner, the chicken will have blue or red ankles. The only outcome I can think of is the chicken was still alive upside down on the hook suffering.

My 10 year old son have asked me that he want to go vegitarian. I am not sure this is a good idea for he is still growing. I think it will be ok to do vegetarian 5 or 6 days a week for the whole family. There are so many health benefits going vegi and grocery cost will be cheaper too.

There are a lot of documents about food nutrition and the abuse of farm animals on Netflix  that convinced me vegetarian is the way to go.

Kathy,

Occasionally here it seems like when the day reaches like 95 degrees there will be a burst of a downpour in the late afternoon. When that happens lots of critters get caught in the rain and injured. baby birds are victims too and my sons and I try to nurse them back to health, but does not always work. So we decided to just leave them there and hope Mom and Dad come to the rescue.

Kathy, I agree that agriculture business has a long history of mistreatment and torture of animals and I find it appalling.
