You take one of those cut it into 6 inch squares put in pot of cold water, bring to a boil, drain and let cool, stuff with butter,cinamon and brown sugar, wrap with aluminum foil, throw on grill with hamburgers and hot dogs to finish.  Have the whole neighborhood or a small scout troop over for Labor day picnic.  That squash will be rich tender and prime.  I do miss feeding all those kids with endless appetites since we moved.  Mostly we just feed some of the neighbors who are single, it's nice but healthy, well fed, sticky face kids are what picnics were made for.

Hey - you sure that's not a peanut?
We get a lot of 'em like that here in Texas.
