"Boscoe Finds......."The Little Squash That "Could ah", "Should ah"and "Would ah"



As mentioned earlier this week, my garden this year has been the subject of much controversy and concern, since Mother Nature has just been very uncooperative and the garden clearly shows signs of unrest.  The unusual weather and supposed "bee" shortage has found me "pollinating" my squash, re-staking my tomato plants with steel "rebar" and protecting my basil from the very aggressive mint family that lies claim to the property.  Additionally, I discovered another baby squash that was trying so hard to fit in, but apparently just decided to call it quits.  It "could ah", "should ah" and probably "would ah" grown up to be spectacular, but apparently Mother Nature had other plans.  So my friends, I present to you the smallest squash I have ever harvested. The local "garden authorities" may snub their noses at this tiny gem, but I'm giving it my stamp of approval!

Awwww...that poor little squash! It's actually pretty cute. I don't think I've ever seen one like that before.
