Just Passing-by The Town´s Fresh Market And Discovered A Weird-looking Squash!

Hola #MarketFriday friends!

I had plenty of errands to make and had to go to different stores. I had to get my Mateus Rosé wine at a particular store that is facing the Day Market. Mateus is a wine from Portugal and their Rosé has the "Original" and the semi-sweet one. This is the only supermarket in our area that sells the semi-sweet one.

After putting the groceries in the car, I decided to go to the Day Market since it was just a few steps away. Passing by the fresh veggies and fruit vendor, I saw this weird squash that had a rough skin or peel. I have never seen such squash! Have you seen one like this? The vendor told me it came from an andalucian farmer, who had been planting this for a while. And said it was just like any other squash with a sweet taste. From its looks, who knows that it is super delicious! I didn´t buy it tho.

The one that I notice in all the times of going to the day market are the rustic or local bags of all natural fibers as you can see in the image below. I couldn´t think of its usage but I thought of getting one for the beach. The only thing that hinders me is that we are only here in Andalucia during winter time as in Oct- to March of the following year. So no beaches, sorry bag! But I know I will be buying one!

This is a post for my friend Denise at @dswigle for her #marketfriday challenge. Thanks Denise for initiating this fun idea of featuring markets around the globe. I will come back again soon... Have a nice day my friend!

Ooo.. You've got to buy that squash fruit or vegetable and share with us what it looks like inside and how it taste like..
I find that sometimes, the most unique fruit or vegetable can be fun to share

Lol, yes I intend to go back because hubbz insisted I ought to try it, perhaps the weirdest thing might be so good... Thanks!

Oh yes.. that would make a good post to share

I want to know what that squash tastes like!!! You must go back and humor us! :)

What an interesting looking squash, isn't it? I tried to Google it, and it was a fail! Make sure you stock up on your Mateus before you leave there! Unless they sell it. I will say that I usually go for local wines or try them anyway as they are cheaper, but, it gives me a little exposure to other wines.

The baskets are nice and yes! I hope you are going to get one to take with you! Thank you so much for being part of the challenge!

#MarketFriday loves you!
