Patty has a thing for squash, but perhaps things went too far this morning when we picked up this 28 lb. (13kg) Hubbard version for $5 (€3,5) at the St. Paul Farmers Market. Needless to say, we'll be eating it, freezing it, making pies with it, etc., for some time. I hope it's good!
This shot also shows context. The thing was creeping out Patty a bit, so she covered it with a jacket.
The saleslady at the Farmers Market said to open it by dropping it on the driveway. It worked great!
Here's Patty "puréeing" the whole thing after baking it. I estimate there's enough to make 20 pies.
