Butternut Squash Soup
Recipe Created by Ruth Paget
This
is one of my coffee table decoration recipes.
One
of my childhood friend’s mom in Royal Oak, Michigan decorated her home with
seasonal foods from Western Michigan it seemed.
Even as a young child, I wondered if she used her pumpkin, dried corn,
butternut squash, and zucchini squash to make soups out of her fall
decorations.
