I case you're curious, yes, I love squash soup (I like pretty much any soup)but no, my kids will not be ecstatic about about dinner to night. Oh well. I've been a mom long enough now that it doesn't hurt my feelings too much. Did you know that I have a child (who will remain anonymous for the sake of his privacy), that when I asked him what dinner he wanted me to cook for his birthday, he could only think of ONE meal he even likes? So sad.... but you can see now why I've grown a bit desensitized to my children's opinions on food.
Back to the soup topic. I don't really use a recipe- I just saute butter and onions, then throw them in with the cooked butternut and some chicken stock. I add various spices and a dash of cayenne for added flavor, then run the soup through the blender. A lot of recipes call for a touch of nutmeg or cinnamon but then even Joel would rebel.

I think it sounds delicious, I wish I could come for dinner. Michelle gave me your blog address. So glad I can come say "hi"
Yum! we are Huge soup fan's at our house, not to mention we all love butternut squash baked with a twitch of brown sugar. I'm going to give your soup idea a try. Does it have a sweet taste to it? mmmm, sounds interesting. I'll have to let you know what we think. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Morrill's!
If you guys like your squash with brown sugar I bet you would go for the recipes asking for a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg. Around here, I would be the only one that would go for it.
Hope to see you next month at the Boise competition!
Hello Tana,
I'm glad you stopped by! You have a fun blog by the way- I've been wanting to visit it ever since that weekend at Michelle's. :-) Don't you miss her?
Lindy wanted to know what it was that Torsten did like? :)
How did she guess it was Torsten?? :-) He likes spaghetti if it has hamburger in the sauce(NOT meatballs, thank you very much).
