| This kind of squash would have been way easier for Linda |
OK, Linda is trying not to panic. For some reason, the squash isn't cooking. She baked it this morning in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes, than took it out to cool off while she went to the gym for her 2 classes. When she got home, she was going to mash it up to make the casserole and it was still hard. Now it's in the microwave trying to cook some more. When she test cooked it a few days ago, she did a small piece in the toaster oven and it worked perfectly at that degrees for the same amount of time. Could it be another case of her oven not working right and she did not know it? We never use the big oven, only the microwave and small toaster oven. She hopes it cooks and it is not a dude squash or something. Erica and Sarah will be so sad if they can't have their squash on Thanksgiving. She's back off to the kitchen.....UPDATE: So the squash and sweet potato's cooked, thank goodness. Now the casserole's are totally made and waiting for the oven to reheat up. There are 2 sweet potato and only 1 squash since not very many people eat it. The green beans are blanched, the almonds toasted and at the last minute she is going to stir fry them in sesame oil. OH, and Taylor is feeling better and will be at the dinner!! Linda promised she won't stay away too long so we can get our walk and enjoy the amazing weather.
