My First Yellow Crookneck Squash Fried image

Well the name says it all. I decided to plant yellow squash this year and they are coming in so I figured let's do something with them along with the other stuff coming out of the garden. * any additional toppings can be used, and timing may be different for others, this was my first yellow squash baby so I was tender. :-)
