Calling Miss Manners...

My cute summer medical student, baked me a loaf of zucchini bread to thank me for giving him the opportunity to work in my lab over the summer. He's thinking of applying to the MD/PhD program as a result of his experience. He and his wife and baby are all super nice people and I definitely appreciate the gesture. The only problem is that he has not been around the lab long enough to hear the story of why I no longer eat zucchini. I thanked him for the gift, but what should I do when he asks me how I enjoyed it?

Bring it to the family BBQ, tell him it was enjoyed. If you have a good relationship with him and he might be working with you more, tell him the story so he doesn't accidently hear it and feel bad.

Or my more smartass answer- Suck it up and eat zucchini. Zucchini bread rocks!
