Harvest Butternut Squash Soup

I recently invited a few of my mom's neighbors over for lunch. I prepared this nice Butternut Squash soup with a Chicken Caesar Salad and bread.  I used the pumpkin soup bowls for the yummy soup. I also made those creamy apple cider caramels I shared previously.

My mom is progressing nicely.  We have high hopes of building a small house on our property, so she can be close.  She is very excited about a new house.

The pool house is almost finished.  I shall be posting some photos soon.  My husband has trim work and of course pavers for the entrance.

  3. Linda- This is so funny! I bought stuff last night to make squash soup. I love the idea of adding apple cider to it. Now I am really craving it. I probably won't make it until tomorrow though.

    I am thrilled to hear that your mom is doing so well. How wonderful of you to put a small home there for her. You are a blessing as a daughter and I know you do it without expecting anything, even thanks, in return.

    Need to check out your caramel recipe, too. xo Diana
