Zucchini's seem to hold a special place in my heart.

My first meeting with a zucchini was when I was about 8years old. Read on to find out how...and get my new Raw Zucchini Recipe 

My favourite Uncle Ron was out from Canada and we were all staying at my Favourite and close Aunty Marlene's  and Uncle Graeme ( my dad's Brothers) Ron standing in Marlene's kitchen making a dish up for the family out of home grown zuccchini and tomatoes , grown from her garden- I was like yuck I am not eating that..! As a child I hated vegetables I think because they over cooked them and they always tasted bland and mushy to me. But these days the flavour of green just excites my soul, and left in there most natural state, I believe gives them the best 

flavoursome taste. 

I will have to ask mum to dig out that photo as I am sure there is one of Ron holding the zucchini ever. Unfortunately my Aunty and Uncle both passed away to cancer. My Dad also grows zucchini and has the best vegetable garden, I am sure Marlene and Dad were always competing who had the best grown vegetable especially when it came to tomatoes, I really miss those days in New Zealand. 

HA thanks mum, here it is. Ok so I got it wrong, I am holding the zucchini,  don't you love technology. I sent mum a message to find the photo and boom here it is!

Zucchini is also known as Courgettes.
