Two weeks ago, while on a weekend trip celebrating our 20th anniversary, the wife and I stopped at an Amish farm market where we spotted these beauties:
A bin full of Festival Acorn Squash.

Praline filling for the Squash: Mix up some brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg & chopped pecans.

Thanks everyone!
Believe it or not, these squash were only 2/75¢ and man, do I regret not getting more. :(

Yeah, around here, I think I've only seen them at farmers markets. The Amish girl at the market said a lot of folks buy them for decoration not knowing they're edible just like regular Acorn squash.
All the veggies at this market were cheap! We also got this humongous head of cabbage for $1: Look How Big This Cabbage is! (http://www.letstalkbbq.com/index.php?topic=2024.0)

These squash are also good with butter, salt and pepper too. With a pinch of nutmeg or allspice. Pam .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.
