Mission: Squashed

Huzzah! A partial solution to the great squash/sage/brown butter craving of 2007 has been found. Answer: Spaghetti squash tossed in a sage brown butter, with lots of parmesan.

Oh hell yeah.

Doesn't the existence of spaghetti squash pretty much definitively prove that God is real? I mean, what are the odds that a plant would produce a swollen fibrous sex organ that, when cooked, tastes almost exactly like a man-made food item, only more nutritious?

I am still working on some kind of dairy-free butternut squash soup concoction. It took a mash-up of three different recipes to resolve the last dilemma, so this might take a while. One I do know: Crushed Amaretto cookies WILL play a role. Oh yes.
