Can you name that vegetable?I'll give you a hint: there's a nursery rhyme.
Yep, a Hubbard Squash.
Yep, that's just what I'm going to do: drop a giant Hubbard squash on the ground and then use the insides to make something "pumpkin." Apparently, the orange flesh of these squash makes better pumpkin than any pumpkin.
We bought our squash, and a few pumpkins, this weekend at a local farm. Sis got a squat, round, deep orange one, while Bud's is more oblong and lighter in color. They'll each get to carve their pumpkins this coming weekend in advance of Halloween. We even have kids' carving kits, though no doubt Mama will be doing most of the work.
At least there will be some pepitas to eat as a reward afterwards.
And "pumpkin" for lunch.
