Summer Zucchini
What do I do with all this zuc
chini? It’s a wonderful vegetable,
but gets tiring when served 5 days
in a row. To help you add variety
to summer meals, serve it some
times as a vegetable and other
times sneak it into soups, cakes
and bars.
Remember, too, to shred some
and store in the freezer for deli
cious cakes, breads and bars
throughout the winter months.
Just package the amount of shred
ded zucchini your recipes specify
so you can microwave it 30 to 40
seconds to thaw and add to the
batter. Label each package so you
know the quantity. Also, make up
extra cakes, breads and bars and
have in the freezer ready for back
to-school needs that will soon be
upon us.
Sliced zucchini and colorful
cherry tomatoes are flavored with
crunchy sesame seed for a deli
cious accompaniment to grilled
meat or poultry.

Hand Washing Versus
Machine Washing c
Many garments today contain
labels giving hand washing
instructions. Hand washing is a
restrictive care process which
reduces the degree of mechanical
action a fabric receives. This type
of care instruction is usually given
because the garment cannot with
stand the excess rubbing or agita
tion of a machine washing pro
cess. Machine washing on a gentle
cycle is not acceptable because
this does involve some agitation
that the garment may not be able
to withstand. Color losses from
machine washing are likely to be

more intense due to the excessive
agitation. Felting shrinkage is also
likely to occur on soft wools when
machine washed. Although the
amount of agitation is reduced on
a gentle cycle, adverse effects may
still occur. When hand washing
instructions are given, the garment
should be processed without twist
ing, wringing, or agitation. The
garment should be squeezed gent
ly by hand to remove any excess
moisture and laid flat to dry.
