Living Large

A couple of the students have gardens, and they keep bringing in giant zucchini.  They don't seem to know what to do with these enormous vegetables, and they think I do.  We Americans are partial to  big things, aren't we?

Having no experience with giant zucchini, I've been cutting them up and sauteing them with onions and adding some onions and garlic.  You can also add potatoes or onions.  Pretty good.

I wonder if vegetables get big because there is so much sunlight.  Prague is on the same latitude as Newfoundland.  The sun rises well before 5:00, and it's light 'til 9:30.
