Itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polkadot zucchini...

Okay, it's not exactly itsy bitsy, nor is it teeny weenie.

Good grief, Squishy--control yourself!

But Squishy has yellow polkadots.  I don't know what they mean, but I'm hoping they're more interested in hangin' out and bein' friends than they are in destroying things.  Wanna be friends, Yellow guy?  Can I call you Yelly for short?  (It's not bad enough that I anthropomorphize my plants, now I'm anthropomorphizing their freckles too.)

Looks like someone sneezed butter.

Moving on, I also detect something a little off about Scruffy.  His leaves are rolling just a bit.  From what I've read, this can mean any number of things.  I just don't know which number Scruffy is dealing with.  Any suggestions, faithful readers?  No?

What gives, Scruff?

I'm hoping it's a watering issue that I can amend by... doing something else, I guess.

I was gone all day, and when I came home, it seemed like Climby had grown four inches and bloomed twenty more flowers.  So pretty and happy!

Such a delicate, feminine plant.

So dainty!

So demure!

But this is the best part.  This started happening earlier this week.  I'm not ashamed to admit that I squeed just a little bit.

Oh you delicious pod, growing so sweet and tasty!

The tendril wanted some attention apparently.

Ah, there we go.  Harbinger of yummitude!

This one is so itty bitty!  So cute, like a fat little infant.

I mulched Stunty (the slow growing green beans) with potting soil.  I hope that makes him a little happier.  They're hangin' in there, and they are actually growing, even if it's a little slow...

Happy little row of what I hope will be deliciousness someday.

This one's downright pretty.

The end.
