Staring quietly over a glass of cabernet last night, my eyes scanned the kitchen and rested on a pair of perfectly-shaped, golden acorn squash that I've been ignoring since my visit to the supermarket a couple of weeks ago. I live in the boonies, so when I go grocery shopping, I love to stock up on all kinds of fruits, whole grains, and hearty, in-season vegetables. My choice is always organic if I can get it, but you may choose otherwise and that's perfectly fine, it won't affect the flavor of the dish.
