To steal a phrase from mamadeb, I am parallel-processing woman tonight.

Tonight I made:
- honey chicken for tomorrow night
- barbeque chicken for Shabbat
- gefilte fish
- "pineapple" kugel (except I didn't have pineapple so I used mandarins instead), recipe via cahwyguy
- three honey cakes
- two dozen hard-boiled eggs (don't need 'em until Yom Kippur break-fast, but as long as I was cooking anyway...)
- tonight's dinner (baked fish and roasted corn)

Not bad for two hours' work. (Well, plus baking time at the end, but I didn't have to participate.)

I made stewed veggies Sunday, and I'll make salads at the last minute. I might roast some veggies for Shabbat; today's visit to the farmer's market resulted in some good options there. And I have fruit, of course, including the obligatory apples and honey.

Yup, I think I'm just about ready culinarily.

Zucchini: or, if you don't feel like buying more, just slice it (raw) and eat with hummus. This only helps if you already have hummus, of course. :-)

"Zucchini" is one of those words that looks like it's already plural, isn't it?

Thanks for the kugel recipe! Sounds yummy. What's a #2 can?

It *is*. Singular is "zucchino" but nobody ever uses it, because zukes never come in quantities of just one. Remember, for another week it is still unsafe to leave your car doors unlocked out in the country. ;->

Or rarely do, anyway. :-) Thanks for the info!

(Yeah, I know about the unlocked-car problem. The urban version involves sharing the bounty of one's garden with coworkers. :-) )
