谢谢孙先生。我这也是现学现用, 利用论坛允许使用的 BBCode 把不同的图像重新组合一下。

BTW, 那张有雕花大南瓜的照片特别好看。记得刚来时,除了大月亮外,让我感到特别新奇的就是那些形状大小各异,五颜六色的Winter squash.

很高興你喜歡那張雕花大南瓜的照片。你的這些 winter squash 也很漂亮。我問你一個傻傻的問題,既然 winter 是冬天,為什麼沒人把 winter squash 譯為冬瓜?

美國國家地理雜誌攝影記者 Nov 2, 2015

看罷電影麥迪遜之橋/廊橋遺夢後,很想當美國國家地理雜誌攝影記者,拍些廊橋。當然沒有去愛荷華州,只在哥倫布日假期,開車北上,到新罕布夏州,當年紅葉高峰期未到,時為2009年。兩張照片應是同一橋,網上那張是屬大師級。

冒昧地問一下,你在「唱歌吧」以及這裏貼出的大多數照片,都是你自己攝的嗎?如果是,那麼你確實應該去美國國家地理雜誌申請一下。至少可以說,那些照片接近大師級水準。

孙先生有所不知,这个问题曾经困惑了我好久。最后算是搞清了Summer squash 与 Winter squash 的区别;而且发现原来冬瓜和 Winter squash 都是因为可以储藏至冬季而得名的。不过呢,对具体各种 Squash, Marrows, Courgette,Melon, Gourd 等等的叫法还是一塌糊涂(瓜和葫芦有时也分不清界限); 有一次居然买回来一个 spaghetti squash.

Summer and Winter Squash Nov 4, 2015

看了下面这篇文章我才知道,不但中国人,连不少美国人对此问题也同样感到困惑。这片文章介绍了十几种最普遍、最受欢迎的 winter squash,其中也提到了 spaghetti squash。看来,我也应该买一个来尝尝。 据专家介绍,winter squash 也是最健康的食品。

Types of Squash - Summer and Winter Squash
http://whatscookingamerica.net/squash.htm
The term summer and winter for squash are only based on current usage, not on actuality. Summer types are on the market all winter; and Winter types are on the markets in the late summer and fall, as well as winter. Thus, the terms Summer and Winter are deceptive and confusing. This terminology was never meant to confuse - it just dates back to a time when the seasons were more crucial to man's survival than they are now.

Old Man of the Mountain Nov 4, 2015

说起 New Hampshire,就不能不提 the Old Man of the Mountain。可惜他的头像已于2003年塌落。不过在此之前,我曾有幸多次目睹他的风采。

如今,他的头像依然与 New Hampshire 州的座右铭 “Live free or die”一起,经常在许多地点和场合出现。难道他的崩溃就是因为“不自由,毋宁死”的信念?

有意思!我一直使用pumpkin,winter squash 就是pumpkin吧?去年的万圣节前我还为孩子做了个南瓜灯,今年种的南瓜长得太小,就一只,只够做一次南瓜浓汤。这里从10月份开始就可在面包房买到新鲜的南瓜面包,也非常可口!

Meixia,

我想你这次是沿着 Die Seidenstrassen 跋涉而来的。

Pumpkin 是属于 winter squash,可是在美语中好像 winter squash 所指的范围要更广泛。BTW, 你那只珍贵的南瓜就作为装饰品好了。还是 Zucchini 最好养,在花盆里就能长得不错。

我种过冬瓜,却没种过南瓜,因为不怎么爱吃。既然南瓜以及 winter squash 如此有益于健康,我今后还是要尽量多吃些。QHE 照片上的那些 winter squash,我以前以为只有观赏价值,还真没尝过它们的滋味呢! 我们这里也有许多用南瓜做的面包、蛋糕以及 pumpkin pie,甚至还有 pumpkin pie 冰淇淋呢:

是呀,我是骑着骆驼沿着丝绸之路赶来的,还好一路上闻着四合院儿的茶香,没有迷路。
Zucchini的确好养。和西红柿一样,我几乎每年都会种。就是有时候会忘记及时收割,结果那个Zucchini就快乐地长啊长啊,长成一个巨型西葫芦。收割时不是拿在手上,而是抱在怀里。根本没有办法一次吃完,只好切成小块冷冻起来。
