Thanks for the help with the winter squash Tormato.There are just the 2 of us,so we don't really need (or want for that matter) a large squash.I would use in soup and bake in the oven or fry on the stove-top with just minimum ingredients.Having something left from the garden for use during the winter would be nice.


What is it about the Rugosa Friulana that you like so much?Always interested in what might be a better option for summer squash too.
