You should try butternut squash - or other varieties, they are delicious and i have some great recipies for them. In Italy it's known as zuccca -I make great risotto, home-made ravioli and soup. It's also good just roasted in the oven with or without other root veg.
As a side note -while in the UK this last week I went out for 2 Italian meals (I have very original friends...) and they were disappointing (was going to say awful which is truer but I am a diplomat at heart!) - won't mention the name of the restaurants as one is very local to you..up in Ossy..need any more clues? I'm afraid to say it is not authentic Italian food -very much Anglicised...
