Mystery Squash: Solved!

Its late but I need to share. Yesterday I cooked up some of the "mystery butternut squash." I grew this squash from seeds that I harvested from a squash I got in a conventional grocery store. One of the other plants from that same batch of seeds grew this little green pumpkin looking gourd. The other plants that came out of this have all been growing things that look like butternut squash. I have been worried though that they would look like butternut, but taste like an old shoe. However, yesterday I made some into squash fries, cut into long wedges and fried in oil. They were delicious. I am so excited I saved more seeds from this new squash so next year I can have another fun guessing game.
