Spaghetti with Creamy Butternut Scallion Parmesan Sauce

I dont know about any of you but, Im pretty wild about squash.  This seemed ideal for a Sunday night dinner & plus, for the first time in a few months, I got to use my Ninja blender / food processor that my very thoughtful boyfriend gave me for Xmas 2 years ago.  I love that sucker.
