Spaghetti Squash Birthday Party

A year ago, jardin produced 15 beautiful spaghetti squashes (read Invasion of Spaghetti Squash).

Some were gifted, others eaten, but one of them stayed in the cellar until today (picture taken today).

Wonder what the equivalent of 12 months in a squash life is to human life.

Should I eat it? Should I even risk it and invite people for dinner? 

One will never know until one tries. What's the worse that could happen other than a bit of tummy ache.

It showed its age a bit when cut open, but smelled fresh and the colour was right.

Preparation for this celebration begun.

A fresh potato bread was baked, salad was prepared, tomato meat sauce was made and all waited for the spaghetti squash to cook.

And to ease the non-believers in the room, regular spaghetti was boiled... just in case.


40 minutes later, beautiful cooked spaghetti squash was ready to serve.

And all survived to write about eating a 12 months old, cellar stored, spaghetti squash.
