45 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, saute celery and onion in butter
until tender. Add the apple, salt, lemon juice and pepper. Cook, uncovered, over
medium-low heat until apple is tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in the
cranberries, sugar and water. Cook and stir until berries pop and liquid is
syrupy. Turn squash halves over; fill with cranberry mixture. Cover and bake
