These are happening right now at the farmer's market: small patty pan squash, beautiful sweet peppers, and miniature zeppelins of eggplant.

The squash look like UFOs.

When you slice them crosswise they look more like stars--either way, we're in outer space.

They went on a platter, surrounding perfect grilled flank steak. I love summer.
