Steps:
- Cut squash in half and scoop out guts, reserve seeds for pepitas if desired.
- Coat open face of squash with oil and roast at 350°F skin side up on a baking sheet liberally coated with non stick spray, until a paring knife gives little resistance when gently pushed through the largest part of the squash (about 45-75 mins, depending on size of squash).
- (Check squash at 35 mins, and in 20 min intervals following.).
- Put fresh herbs in cheesecloth so they are easy to remove later.
- Chop celery and onions.
- In a large saucepan, stock pot, or instant pot, sautee celery and onions in butter with fresh herbs until cooked through. Add 1 tsp salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove herbs from celery and onions.

- Add 1/2 cup of half and half.
- Cook for at least 90 minutes.
