Sounds yummy Elsie! They are quite expensive to buy aren't they? My middle daughter loves them - she wants me to grow them next year...which ones did you grow? (I don't know much about them shamefully.......)

Congratulations Elsie, as Sweetleaf said it has not been a good year for Squashes here in the Birmingham area, too cold and too much rain, what variety did you grow? and where in the country are you? regards Steve.
