Candyroaster Pie

It's been a little bit since I've written an "ethnobotanical" (the study of a region's plants and their practical uses through the traditional knowledge of a local culture and people) song.  Recently I was working our Sylva Candyroaster page and I even wrote "I still need to write a song about candyroasters."  Then I thought, maybe I should just write one right quick--and I did!  A few years ago I submitted an article about this fabled Appalachian Squash to the NC Folklife Food Blog.  Their Food Blog is really worth a gander!
