I love winter squash. I buy a lot of butternut because that and acorn
are generally what we are offered in the stores. I am embarrassed
when I see stores offering "gourds" for Halloween decorations and the
gourds are the beautiful hubbards, kabotas, etc. I don't buy them
anymore because they are so large and we just don't eat enough to
either process and freeze or cut up and refrigerate and eat for a
week, 10 days.
