Winter squash

I came across a really cool feature in the LA Times - a photo album showing different types of winter squash. This is very useful to me as I see many different varieties at the farmer's market and am not sure which ones are which. However, I haven't ever noticed most of those pictured...there are some very cool looking squashes!

Hokkaido/Potimarron squash - I'm trying this when I find it!!! It's supposed to taste like chestnuts! Yum!

Just in time for Thanksgiving in case you are planning to cook with some winter squash!
