Good evening, dear readers!

Judes has been having fun trying new varieties of squash. This here is carnival squash. 

And then today the store had a large bin full of more new and exciting squash. So Judes got...a few. 

Here is the smallest one, kabocha. Did you know that in some cultures, it is an aphrodisiac? Well, you do now!

Judes' friend told her she might want to consider growing a particularly large squash and living inside of it. Brilliant idea, I say. She could call that chapter in her memoir: "Judes and the Supreme Squash." 

Today was breezy. No, just kidding, it was WINDY. There was even a wind advisory. Judes told me the power went out at work for a bit. Luckily, it is back on now, because otherwise it would be quite chilly! I think I saw part of a fence fall down from the wind as well. What a silly little town in the middle of nowhere. Thank goodness for new squash; I don't know how Judes and I would cope otherwise.
