I’m looking for a zucchini bread recipe. Can you post yours? I did find a chocolate zucchini bread one but it tastes more like cake. Lol!!
Thanks!!

Lol about the teens! My two boys (ages 11 and 14) spent the week at their grandparents, and all I needed for my husband and I for the week was a quick $50 trip to Aldi!
Haha! It’s just crazy how much food they can eat!
Turn a bunch of those tomatoes into homemade tomato soup. It is possibly delicious and I miss that so much from when we had a garden. It’ll go with your grilled cheeses!!
That’s a great idea! I’ll do that.
I meant positively not possibly…. Ugh. But it will ruin you for life and you won’t be able to go back to canned haha!
