Zucchini Day

Yesterday was zucchini day (after a little morning tennis).  You probably didn't know there was such a day, probably because it was only at my house!  I made zucchini bread (new recipe with lemon, lighter than my normal one but very yummy too), and zucchini casserole, and also zucchini corn bread, The breads were a hit; the casserole tolerated by my husband, but for someone who rarely eats vegetables, that's good. I plan to make it again for a luncheon at church on Sunday.  Oh and don't tell N, but zucchini is always in our salad too.  I made zucchini relish last week but haven't tasted yet. Next I'm thinking the chocolate zucchin cake recipe- really don't tell him about that one; he'll just have to try it..

Started this morning with paint! Started to paint some trim and quickly realized I wasn't prepared to do that.. So got the caulk gun out instead and didn't some much needed caulking. Tommorrow I will buy some painter's tape and more caulk since I ran out; I cannot really get the edges without painting the floor too so the tape is a must. I'm really waiting for a painter to call me back, but thought I'd try to clean up the trim in upstairs bath before company comes on Monday.  There's much painting here to be done.

This afternoon we went to the Barter Theater to see Alfred Hitchcock's The 39 Steps. Very cleverly done with only 4 actors playing a lot of different people and also bringing the limited props with them on stage. Very ingenious clothing changes, different facial expressions and sometimes accents to show which character they were! Think secret agents with a little Monty Python and vaudville thrown in.. It was very, very funny.  We really enjoyed.

Reminder- when you take your camera with you, be sure to have extra batteries. I'm disappointed to have no pictures today because I didn't follow that rule!  This is a very cute town the theater is in, but I'll be there again so will try next time.
