Recipe for fun and food:
- Take one good-size blue hubbard squash. Maybe 10-15 pounds worth.
- Wash the field dirt off the down side.
- Get a good grip on the squash and carry it outside
- Once you’ve gotten to the driveway, pitch the squash UP .
- Watch the satisfying little arc it makes, up, up and then downward
- Enjoy the nice cracking noise it makes as it hits the ground.
- Pick up the several big pieces (one which bears all the big white seeds) and put them in the big bowl you wisely brought with you
- Go inside and use the biggest knife you have and understand why others have advised using a hatchet to whack the pieces into smaller pieces for cooking.
