A Constructed Life

And her first boyfriend will be a pumpkin

Addy and I went to the local farmers’ market last weekend and I let her carry the ginormous zucchini I purchased (“I’ll make zucchini bread, zucchini boats and a zucchini bed to sleep in!”) all the way home. It has since become her BFF. Every time she sees it on the kitchen counter, we have to pause so she can pick it up and pat it and hug it. Seriously, she cuddles with it like it’s her most beloved stuffed animal. Instead of cooking with it, I think I’m going to have to dress it up, buy it a wig and accept that it’s Addy’s new playmate. I think we’ll name it Jane. No, make that Jayne. This zucchini has a bit of an edge.
