Spaghetti Squash



Early this morning I pulled some weeds in the garden and checked on the Spaghetti Squash and found this great big one. It is a nice buttery color and was the first one I harvested. I laid it in a plate to give you an idea of it's size. This is not one of the two Squash that I had photographed earlier in the month. Those smaller ones still aren't ready to harvest until they turn a more buttery color.

I must admit, I am a little excited about the Spaghetti Squash. I plan to bake it. Once cooked, you use a fork to shred the insides, which gives it it's name and the appearance of spaghetti. I noticed the Internet is not lacking in recipes for the Spaghetti Squash!

Garden Update 3 of 3, Squash and Gourds



Sometimes the vines grow close and intertwine, as in this case of two small watermelons on the left and Spaghetti Squash on the right. The Squash is nearly ready to harvest, and I can't wait to eat some!


This is one of the ornamental "bumpy" gourds. It's good for nothing but Fall decorations!
