They now cure in our back hallway. The night before \u2013 a very rainy and windy Sunday that my poor 17-year-old daughter spent outdoors at the last rowing regatta of the season on the Merrimack river \u2013 I had roasted three of the five previously harvested squash and turned half of the roasted pulp into a very tasty butternut squash soup with fried sage and cheese, adapted from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.epicurious.com\/recipes\/food\/views\/butternut-squash-soup-with-parmesan-and-fried-sage-leaves-105771\">this recipe<\/a>. The soup was the perfect ending to a wet and raw day.  I froze the other half of the pulp for future use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all, I have harvested nine butternut squash so far. They weighed in at a total of 21 pounds and 15 ounces. I gave two of them to my neighbor and five are still on the vine \u2013 a total of 14.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"695\"
