   Ah, yes, the August plague of zucchini…Such succulent delicacies until they take over!

   I recommend epicurious.com

   I can’t believe nobody’s made a lewd joke yet. I expected better from you, newspeak readers! Or maybe I just need to get my mind out of the gutter and stop having the sense of humor of an 11-year-old boy.

   I don’t know about lewd, but I can make a few nerd-related, inside-joke comments:

   “Nothing Can Defeat the Zucchini!”

   and

   “Hey, Zagros! Look who thinks he’s a Centaur, too.”

   Oh, and I recommend slicing the zucchini thinly, then saute in butter with fresh dill and cumin seed.

   Here’s the recipe my mom uses:

   2 cups washed and trimmed Zucchini
   1 cup Walnuts
   2 cups Sugar
   3 cups Flour
   3 Eggs
   1 Cup Canola Oil
   1 tbsp Vanilla
   2 tsp Cinamon
   1 tsp Salt
   1 tsp baking soda
   1 tsp baking powder

   Blend Zucchini
   Beat eggs until foamy, stir in Vanilla
   Gradually beat in oil and sugar
   Add Zucchini, and dry ingredients (except flour) … mix well.
   Add flour, and fold in chopped walnuts.
   Pour into greased and floured loaf pans.
   Bake at 350º for one hour, or until inserted toothpick comes out clean. YUM.
