Instructions Preheat the oven to 400F. Wash the squash well, then dry with a clean towel. Carefully cut the acorn squash in half lengthwise (from top to bottom), then scrape out the seeds with a spoon. Slice the squash crosswise into 1/2-inch wide slices. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil, maple syrup, smoked paprika, and salt. Place the sliced squash in a bowl, then pour the maple syrup glaze over top.

Food Joke

Two monkeys were sitting in a tree and two lions were sleeping below them. One monkey said to the other monkey "I dare you to go down there and kick one of those lions in the rear end." The other monkey said o.k. I'll go down there and kick him in the rear end as hard as I can. So he goes down the tree and kicks the lion as hard as he can and takes off swinging through the trees. The lion starts to chase him. He keeps getting closer, and closer until the monkeys thinks "Man I better do something quick or that lion is going to eat me for lunch. So he keeps swinging until the lion is pretty far behind him and he sees a newspaper lying on the ground. So he picks it up and starts to read it. All of a sudden the lion catches up to him and says, "Did you see a monkey run by here?" The monkey goes, "You mean the one that kicked that lion in the rear end?" And the lion says,"Dang it was in the paper already?"
