Some of them are quite artistic, especially those in Europe. You should start noticing them and take pictures. Acorn squash: cut in half, scrape out seeds, roast upside down with a little water until soft. Serve with butter, salt and pepper.Forget all that sugary stuff, like sauerkraut, it should be plain.Joyfulartisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01175430279264778324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-58214627964413025592012-10-10T15:09:26.944-04:002012-10-10T15:09:26.944-04:00NYC has such a romantic aura.

Then, turn over, fill with a mixture of raisins (I soaked mine in Frangelico!), chopped hazelnuts, diced apple, sprinkled with brown sugar; return to the oven at 350 and bake for another 30 minutes.
