HOMESTEADING - Downsized 
We lost every single zucchini plant to the bugs (again). So frustrating. Your dish looks yummy.
Thanks. Too bad about your plants. It might not be too late to get an early summer squash planted. Also see our past post “Baby Step 24: Make Your Own Non-toxic Pest Sprays”- the recipe works very well.
Thanks. I tried everything, but the bugs loved our winter that wasn’t a winter. I may try again.
