I'm in Texas, and yes.
In fact, there are two of them out in the refrigerator right now.
I'm contemplating using them over the weekend.

Yeah, tomatoes are a problem when it comes to sugar carbs!
You have to really go easy on them.

My thing is, sometimes I want a savory, non-italian dish like chicken
noodle soup or somesuch, and spagetti squash really is not suitable for
that.

Thanks tho'! :-)

I find that spagetti squash is best if you rinse the "noodles" in a
colander and get all the squashy mush off the fibers.
