"It" being that part of the season when you've got to check cucurbits twice a day (for us, at least)

During 2020, I was still living with my parents and working from home, so I got to enjoy home-cooked meals every day. Well, except that every two weeks my mum would surprisingly find a massive zucchini in the garden and it had to be eaten.

Long story short, I was fed a life supply of zucchini in one summer. I have not enjoyed zucchini ever since. ๐Ÿซ

Having a few varieties helps a little but that's part of why we're making relish - so I can give some of it away in a form that others aren't also tired of.
