The highlight of my little town’s annual celebration festival has always been this:
.

.
Yes ladies and gentlemen…. we race zucchini here in vacation land.
.

.
And it’s a definite crowd pleaser.
.

.
That’s the pit crew getting the semi finalists ready.
.

.
Some of the entries were quite creative.

It’s hard to tell but the one of the far left is a whale… complete with tail and water coming out of his blow hole.
And in case you’re wondering how this works….

I love my town.

Mama always told me not to play with my food

Right – I’d be a hypocrite if I said I didn’t (uhh) find entertainment with food a time or two.

Oh, oh—I think a cucumber snuck in there–don’t want to get any arrested so that is all I will say!

Has anybody ever tried to cheat by entering a cucumber disguised as a zucchini?

I don’t know. But hopefully the imposter would be shamed off the track…

There’s a certain appeal to small towns. I wouldn’t mind moving to one when I’m older, especially if racing zucchini cars is a thing there.
