While visiting my daughter she presented me with a new cooking task. A friend of hers grew what is called Italian Squash. I don't believe I've ever seen anything quite like this. It measured 3 feet 2 inches long and was 3 1/4 inches around the thickest part. My task is to come up with a great tasting dish made from this "squash" that is almost as long as I am tall. I guess it's time to go to the internet to do a little research. If any of you have ever cooked or eaten Italian Squash, please let me know how it was cooked and your opinion of it's taste.
In the picture above, I've placed a wine glass beside the squash for comparison.













I'm from Georgia, moved to North Carolina by way of Florida. I've been in Charlotte for 14 years and love it. The recipes in my book Stir, Laugh, Repeat are all tested by "Food Testers" of which I now have 24. They try a dish and rate it from 1-10 with only those scoring at least an 8 making the book. My website is a holding place for my 2nd book Stir, Laugh, Repeat... Again. Please visit my site to find new recipes and tips. All recipes are easy, using common ingredients and according to my testers, great!
When I wrote my introduction about a year ago and a lot has happened since then. I now have 5 blog sites that keep me pretty busy. Two of my sites are dedicated to nothing but recipes. Martha's Recipe Cabinet holds recipes that will be included in one of my upcoming cookbooks. Martha's Kitchen Korner consists of recipes that are good but still need just a bit of work. On A Book and A Dish you will find my book reviews and the author's favorite recipe. Stir, Laugh, Repeat holds reviews written about my cookbook Stir, Laugh, Repeat and the site you are now on is the "mother" site for all of these. Here you will find cooking tips, simple recipes and updates for additions to the "offspring sites." So, enjoy!
