Fried Squash

This is now tied as my super #1 favorite way to eat squash!  It is quite easy to make and is a nice accompaniment to the country ham, stewed potatoes, fried okra, fresh sliced tomatoes and biscuits that made tonight's dinner.

1. Chop squash into bite size pieces and place in a bowl.
2.  Pour buttermilk onto squash - just enough to cover it.
3. Sprinkle salt and pepper onto squash.
4. Mix well.
5. Heat veggie oil to frying temperature.
6. In a Zip-Loc baggie, add white corn meal (2 cups or so to start)
7. Grab a handful of squash, letting the excess buttermilk drip through your fingers.
8. Drop squash into baggie. 
9. Using your dry hand, toss the squash until it is covered in cornmeal then shake off excess cornmeal.
10. Drop into hot oil and fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
11. Repeat with rest of squash.
