Pumpkin Squash, it isn’t as sweet as it sounds, by Jill Kuhel

The sight of this box conjures up traumatic memories if you have ever worked at a garden center~ha!

I will never forget the Russian roulette of sticking your hand in to grab a pumpkin praying that it is not rotten. There is a special stench to a rotting pumpkin that does not easily wash off.
