Squash Anyone??





( one picture was taken the 11th of this month and the other was the 24th....same squash...)





I'm not sure if you guys know but Nancy and I have a little garden. we decided to make one in order to save money when it came to buying tomatoes. we planted to tomato plants, some peppers, some zucchini, and some pickling cucumbers along with some lemon cucumbers. oh i almost forgot to mention....some pink banana jumbo squash.. the thing is our tomatoes....our main reason for this are getting eaten by rabbits...also our zucchinis are getting eaten by gophers ( we have two types growing....only the mexican zucchini is growing, the other one is being eaten). our pickling cucumbers have grown and have been eaten by us. our peppers haven't fully developed yet.....all these veggies are common in our house, we've bought them from stores before....but what we are having problems with, and the whole point for this blog is....our pink banana jumbo squash....WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSE TO DO WITH THEM??? so far we haven three of the squashes growing...these things are huge....one is being given to the neighbor when its ready to be eaten.....that leaves us with two.....Nancy has been looking all over the internet for recipes on this squash and has not been able to come up with anything. this is were you come in.....we were wondering if any of you guys might have had an encounter with this squash before and knows how to cook it or even make bake goods with it. hoping you can help....these things are said to be 20 plus lbs....whatever help you can offer is truly welcomed....

p.s. we would have a picture of it, but nancy's camera broke.
