Yellow Crookneck Squash - 2011

On the heels of my first zucchini ripening, I found the first of our Yellow Crookneck Squash ready to be picked.   And it is a big one, too!  A bunch of the photos of these beauties around the web show them with bumps - almost like a Halloween gourd, but mine are smooth - and have a very tiny/soft prickle on them RIGHT when you pick it.  There's not much 'crook' to the neck of this first one, but some of the other ones I can see growing are a bit more curved.
