Did you know....

1. that a squash is really a fruit because the seeds are inside? But we still consider it a vegetable.

2. that pesto can be frozen in an ice cube tray, then put into a clear plastic baggie and kept in your freezer until you are ready to use it? To serve it, simply pop it into a pan, add a little wine, broth and cook.
