If this doesn’t get into Kingdom Hearts III, then SquareEnix truly doesn’t have a sense of humor.

Next paladin concept I want to play: a tall, literally statuesque being, either a warforge constructed to look like flesh to stone or a WoD Promethean whose “wounds” are sealed over with gold for a kintsugi look. Like an Amaluran Kollossae in appearance.

Gorrem

But with the golden wounds/repairs.

Their background could be that they were intended to be a simple if artistic construct built by a mage experimenting utilizing positive plane energy rather than arcane, and since positive plane is literally life and divine light, they make a far more sentient and complex being. Bonus points if they have “siblings” made with similar methods, but with negative energy and other significant extraplanar power that either develop their own individuality, or thanks to their sibling, growing their own souls in response.

This looks REALLY fun. An earth genasi who fixes their battle scars with gold & silver, creating the look of kintsugi pottery.

A clear river flowing with leaves

Runs through a red forest of trees

Such a vision of maple

Is a boon if you’re able

To sit still and attain inner peace

The story that I want to tell you cannot be found in a book. They say the history of the West was written from the saddle of a horse, but it’s never been told from the heart of one, not ‘til now.

Everyone tells you about the zucchini.

No one tells you about the zucchini advice. Because the minute you plant your wee little zucchini plants, you will be inundated with unsolicited advice on how to handle the massive amounts of zucchini that you don’t have yet.

I shall now pass this wisdom on to you, so that you may have a list of all the things you might do with large amounts of zucchini- should you be mysteriously gifted with someone else’s unwanted crop.

Which brings me to bullet point number one:

Give your unwanted crop to someone else. This is a longstanding tradition in suburban areas, where someone wanting to start a garden may have been under the very incorrect assumption that one plant yields one fruit. Well, soccer mom, you are incorrect. Welcome zucchini hell- hope your friends are loyal, and they didn’t make the same mistakes you did.

Thinly-sliced zucchini will freeze well.

Matchstick-sliced zucchini will also freeze well.

Zucchini Bread

for use as a ballast

Sliced and stir-fried

Sliced and steamed with other vegetables

Have you considered giving them to your neighbors?

Make a relish out of shredded zucchini and carrots. Add radish if you’re feeling froggy.

Grill them in olive oil with balsamic vinegar

Feed them to the chickens and the pigs.

Stuffed, fried zucchini flowers.

Do consider bringing your spare zucchinis to queer meet-ups, because it is likely that your queer friends are in need of greens and fiber in their diet.

pickle them.

Also minced. Minced will freeze well.

See that fool over there who left his car doors unlocked? I bet he’d love some zucchini.

Greek Stuffed Zucchini

Under the cover of night, take the seeds of your bountiful zucchini and plant them covertly on the property of your local bigoted politicians.

Zucchini soups

Zucchini noodles

A lot of y’all are suggesting to compost the zucchinis. This is what you do if you want significantly more zucchinis next year.

Sauteed with garlic, butter, pepper, and salt

Grated zucchini freezes well also.

Cheese and zucchini souffle (cheese souffle plus zucchini minced)

Vegetable lasagna

Zucchini compote (just slow cook the shit out of it)

Zucchini quiche

Swaddle your oversized zucchini like a baby and when your neighbor asks to hold the baby, throw it at her and run.

Zucchini parmesan.

Zucchini chips

Breaded and fried zucchini

And I’m sure there’s tons more because zucchinis are a versatile starchy vegetable which means that they have endless possibilities. Use your imagination and build your new kingdom on courgettes. Bend them to your will.

And then eat them.

bluff-check

I’m reblogging equally 50% for some slamming courgette recipes and 50% for the implication that there’s a large and secretive courgette farming community victimising others with their produce at any chance they get, which is frankly delightful

libraford

Its not an implication. That is literally what happens in America in August.

Zucchinis are a very adaptable vegetable and some areas of America have incredibly nutrient-rich soil. Furthermore many gardeners are unaware just how much one plant is capable of yielding. As a result, many first-time gardeners make the mistake of planting too many hills. (Such as my coworker who thought one plant = one fruit, and planted twelve.)

The result is more zucchini than any human should ever have. People tend to remedy this by leaving a quantity of them in unlocked cars, on doorsteps, and creatively disguised as children.

The endeavor tends to go over better if the vegetables are baked into something instead of gifted raw. Chocolate zucchini cake is the courgette’s final form and its delicious.
