Beyond The Blue

[#1]

I know what you’re thinking… “National sneak what onto my neighbor’s what now??”  Believe me, until a week ago, I had no idea National Sneak Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor’s Porch Day was even a thing.  But it totally is, my zucchini loving friend!  And in case you’ve never celebrated this charmingly peculiar day before, allow me to help you celebrate it right!

Zucchini Delivery

Now, the traditionalist in me believes the best way to celebrate Sneaky Zucchini Day is by simply placing a zucchini on your neighbor's porch in the dead of night, so they might awaken to this delightful vegetable on their porch the next morning. That said, I know a simple zucchini might not be everyone's cup of tea, so it can help to spruce up your delivery a bit. One great way to do that is by baking some zucchini bread! The Breville Custom Loaf Bread Maker couldn't make this process any easier for you. No need to knead or mix your dough, simply add your ingredients, select your preferences, and your neighbors will be enjoying zucchini bread in no time.

Of course, zucchini bread is just the tip of the zucchini iceberg. There are plenty of us zucchini zealots out there who have thrown together some fantastic zucchini recipes for you to help spice up the zucchini you’ll be gifting your neighbor. Zucchini tastes great in a salad, a stir fry, perhaps some quiche, or even baked on its own! What about some zucchini pasta? Pick yourself up a spiralizer like this Bella Electric Spiralizer to start crafting your own zucchini noodles.  Do you have a KitchenAid Mixer? KitchenAid’s Spiralizer Mixer Attachment or Vegetable Sheet Cutter Attachment will help you create a healthy, zucchini-flavored pasta dish that your neighbors are sure to love!

Who’s That Sneaking Zucchini Onto My Porch?

So, now that you know how amazing this day can be, you’re all in on this zucchini sneaking fun, right?  But what happens if your neighbor delivers some zucchini to your porch overnight, and you’re not sure which neighbor to thank?  Well, if they didn’t include a card with their zucchini (as is tradition), perhaps an outdoor security camera will help you identify your new favorite neighbor!   

We’ve got a wide variety of Outdoor Security Cameras to choose from, all of which would be a great addition to your home. Take the Night Owl 8-Channel, 4-Camera Indoor/Outdoor Surveillance System for example. Four 1080p cameras with motion-activated recording and 100-foot night vision, will help you see your neighbor deliver your fresh zucchini in beautiful HD. This system also comes with 1TB of hard drive storage, just in case you’re lucky enough to have more than one neighbor choose to bless you with some fresh zucchini, and you need to record multiple deliveries.

Perhaps your perfect window of opportunity has passed, or you don't have time to deliver fresh produce to your neighbor in the middle of the night? It's completely understandable, dear reader. If your neighbors are like me, they'll love a zucchini delivery, day or night! If they've got a Wireless Doorbell Camera, be sure to give it a ring, so they can see your smiling face as you give them the glorious gift of zucchini.

Obviously there are plenty of ways to celebrate National Sneak Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Day, but how do you choose to celebrate? Is this your first year celebrating, or has it become an annual tradition in your neighborhood?
