I can't believe this is the first year I've ever eaten a butternut squash. My, what I've been missing! The adorable little nest egg gourds look wonderful in a bowl on the dining room table, as well as in the laying boxes. They were a sweet little gift from Robert, aka "The Pumpkin Man", a few weeks back. He talked me into a cushaw squash, and I plan to cook it and freeze the flesh for "pumpkin pies" later in the season.
Are you trying anything new this year?

You can do so many things with a cushaw. That brings me back to many childhood memories. I remember my mother cooking them in every way possible. I especially remember when she fried them and sprinkled them with cinnamon and sugar.
