hey, when you use powerful words on everyone around you whether it be “love” or “hate,” people take notice and those words become less powerful. you’re runnin out of mana, idiot
When an evil witch came to burrow she left a path of destruction behind her. The once beautiful town now lays overgrown and left to ruin. The caring and kind villagers cursed to live out the rest of their days as animals. The only hope of restoring the town lays in the hands of a young witch named abigail.
Second time making this is so much better. Instead of following the directions, I roasted the butternut squash for half an hour in the oven, then added it with the remainder of the ingredients in a dutch oven to finish cooking.
It was smooth compared to the first time when the texture was a bit gritty–didn’t blend well–and it was delicious. Topped it with some shaved parmesan. I’ve wanted to prepare this for my dad since he was released from the hospital–no better time than on his birthday and he loved it!
1 butternut squash
½ large onion, diced
1 apple, diced
4 cups vegetable broth
¼ ground nutmeg
¼ salt
¼ pepper
About 1-2 hours for cook time, between roasting the squash and cooking on medium-low in a dutch oven. Then blend with an immersion blender until smooth.
Serve with a swirl of coconut milk or parmesan cheese.
Helpful tip: While the oven is heating, poke holes in the squash with a fork and microwave for a couple minutes (4min worked for me) to help soften. Slice it in half, scoop out the seeds, drizzle with olive oil, then place upside down on a cookie tray lined with foil for easy cleanup. Roast for 30-40 minutes until soft, at 350F.
This was loved so much that I’m making another pot of it tonight.
listen, I’m not the biggest fan of kids but if a child looks at me then you bet I’m gonna smile back at them. kids deserve to experience the world as a kind and safe place to explore okay.
"There’s nothing in life quite like autumn. Misty mornings and rainy afternoons. The crisp cool feeling that hangs in the air. A sense of warmth that comes from within. It’s nothing less than magical, really."
