Butternut squash seeds - who knew?

that they are even yummier than pumpkin seeds? Well, they are. I bought a couple of organic butternut squashes today for the wee baby, and scooped out the seeds before baking them. Sprayed a cookie sheet with a little olive oil. Sprinkled on a little salt, baked for 10 minutes at 350 degrees F. Delicious!!! Even the 5 yr old princess and 3 yr old criminal kept eating them. I would post a pic, but they were gone too fast. I highly recommend it. It's a good thing!

A quick google search will tell you a lot about the great nutritional properties of pumpkin seeds, and I would guess that the profile of butternut squash seeds would be similar. To think for years I tossed squash seeds in the compost!

Knitting is moving along. I am not moving along. Still wearing crazy boot action. Missed Martha today, will miss her again tomorrow. Not a good thing.
