I'm baking the last of my home-grown squash today. Picked in October! Of the 4 that are in the oven, only one showed signs of deterioration, and even then it was only skin-deep.

3 T squash and a Shmoo!

(Translation: Three Tromboncino and one Tennessee Sweet Potato squash.)

One of the T's was so much oranger than the others that I saved a few seeds separately. A few years ago I harvested a squash that was fluorescent orange and sweeter than sugar, but the seeds produced just the normal kind. I'm hoping to isolate the strain.
