One of the things I love about being a B&B host is that I get to learn a lot about the cultures of my guests (and by culture I primarily mean food). A perfect example being the past 10 days. I’ve had 2 awesome women staying with me from France and we’ve become good friends…

Zucchini Bread Recipe
As promised to Mama Bear, here is my now-slightly-famous zucchini bread recipe! Zucchini Bread by Ginger Smaller zucchini work best for this as they are more flavourful and tender!
