Wow! Do they keep well in a root cellar?
Funny squash story...as a child I decided I hated squash and would not eat it, then as I got older I discovered I actually liked it. However, the line in the sand had been drawn!
I snuck bites. Now, as a grown man, I prepare squash with lots of butter and brown sugar, likely defeating it's nutritional properties, but it is sooooooo good!
Do you or Mark have a food you just don't like and never have?
So, will this translate into a more hands-off gardening style in the future?
Come to think of it, I guess you might need a couple of seasons to determine what does well where at your new place...
