advice....

found  a good one this week.

i know it's not fall but i loved

her approach on cooking squash.

Baking Squash

" I used to have sad times preparing my 

Hubbard squash for the kettle or oven,

often being obliged to call on the ax to

help me, 

and generally  winding up with at least

one disabled member.

Now, immediately after breakfast,

I just wash the squash and place it in the 

range oven.

By dinner-time it is baked;

then I open it with any common knife,

remove the seed, scrape out the squash,

and with the addition of a little cream

and seasoning I have the most delicious

squash imaginable, for all its sweet juices have

been retained and so has my temper!

i think O.D.B would have been quite

the entertaining blogger.

i love her phrasing and description of her experience. 

the squash sounds good but here is what i

took away, if you need to use an ax

to make a recipe it probably isn't a good idea.

change the menu.
