|
Last summer I grew zucchini and yellow squash in the same area of the garden. Of course, they crossed and we got these really weird colored squash. So I let one grow so I could save the seeds. Tom wanted some and he said there should be some green ones and some yellow ones and some mixed up ones. They all tasted great.
I cut it open yesterday and it had a lot of seeds. More than Tom or I need so if anyone would like some seeds I can send some until I run out of what I have. They fill a cookie sheet when spread out flat. Glenda already said she'd take a few. Dooley

Too bad you can't clone her Dooley, you could make a fortune selling the clones. She is a sweetheart.

How cute Dooley, Chance is on guard even while posing for a photo. Plenty of squash thieves around.

Chance has 5 brothers and sisters. They were all brown and white. You would not believe how fast those short legs can move her. Her mom was a springer spaniel-her dad a corgi with an attitude.

See, Chance can guard more than big squash. She is checking out something suspicious. Me, I think, with a camera. Dooley
