Marc--

With all due respect, I'll bet you've never had a freshly steamed yellow
crookneck with a dab of butter, a touch of salt and pepper, or you'd never
be able to say such stuff. And of course, there's the next-day leftover.
Squashed squash sautéed with some diced onions in butter with salt and
pepper? My goodness, that's good stuff. And they go very well with a nice
ribeye, too. 

Now, on to pot-likker recipes! :)

Squash you may have and, pray, take my portion with blessings!  This is
insipid garbage to my beef- and pork- tuned tastebuds.  But the ability to
purchase locally grown tomatoes and melons and potatoes and so forth makes
life in Roanoke, Virginia, a sweeet thing, along with locally grown apples
and apple butter and cider -- on occasion we can get the REAL unpasturized
stuff, if you buy beneath the table.  And we have lots of pork and beef
grown locally, fron Black Angus steaks freshly cut to hams and bacon cured
in many ways and available to your order.

I am getting a-hungered thinking about this! But, pray, spare me the
squash, yams, and the like.  (To be honest, I can do justice to a sweet
potatoe laden with butter, salt, and pepper and, perhaps, a touch of lemon
freshly squeezed.)

Incidentally, the Roanoke Farmers' Market has been in continuous service
since 1882.  We never lost it, so we never had to re-invent the wheel.
