If my stomach could talk it would be about butternut squash!

Does your stomach have a memory? Does each and every delicious food that passes through that cave of consumption echo in its past fondly? What about the bad food, the food that’s left it in disrepair, do they too make an impact on the future of your stomach? Does the stomach feel nostalgic some days, longing for soups in winter when it’s too hot out? O! All the loves and heartbreak, in food form of course, that make the tangled web of your stomach’s heart….if only those walls could talk.

Well, they talk when they’re hungry but you know what we mean.

Butternut squash goals.

So my squash plants have exploded with fruit. I have nine butternut squash in various stages of ripeness plus two buttercup squash. Looks like squashapolooza is happening this year despite the squirrel damage.
