I Can Do This!
Mmm - I've always liked cottage cheese, but hated celery. Maybe I should try it again? Maybe I might like it now? What do you think?

if only butternut squash wasn't so hard to peel . I used to love the flavour of butternut squash soup, roasted etc. Love sweet potatoes too. Can't wait to taste them afresh...

Don't bother
to peel the butternut squash for soup. Just cut it into chunks and get rid of the seeds. Cook long and slow and blend everything including the skin. Thick wholesome golden soup.
You can add anything really.
Onion, garlic, ginger, smoked paprika, Marigold, curry powder, cumin, carrot, sweet potato, split peas, lentils, grated orange peel and juice - any combination.
Yum yum - winter warmer Mmmmmmmmm.

Playing the Angel
Ive made up 2 batches of butternut/sweet potato soup recently, one with orange and ginger and the other lightly curried - both awesome. Have also roasted sweet potato and butternut with cinnamon stick, garlic and chili which I will pop a vinaigrette onto later to have as a cold salad. Should be wonderful with some lime to set off the sweetness of the veg. We had a bit of sweet potato in the frittat yesterday which made it really amazing - ha such a wonderfood!! I am also working on 2 "dessert" recipes which I will have a play with tomorrow and if they work, will let you know how they turn out.... Hell it is almost Halloween squash and pumpkin is so the way forward.

Hey Kens, nice to see you joiurnaling again.
My OH onlhy knew me fat. It never mattered to him - he is one of those gems that looks beyond that. But he knew how much it made me unhappy - so supported the whole process.
Now, he LOVES it when people hit on me, or look or comment. Its very nice - I think it just makes him feel more proud of me then he already does., And i think it makes him proud to. He likes to then make it clear I am with him. heh.
Its nice. BUt there is no jealousy which is great, caause Im his, and hes mine - so theres no game playing, etc. Just make him proud.
