Fall Soup

Being sick is tiring.  I can't believe that I haven't posted since July, but I have barely been able to go to work and keep a paycheck.  I'm working with my doctor but basically my thyroid blew out (underactive) and my girl parts need to be removed (that is my opinion, the jury is still out pending tests).  When I am sick, I don't eat right, exercise right, or act right.  I need a cook and maid and mother for my son.  On the bright side, fall is beautiful and brings harvests of yummy food.

I made soup with the banana squash from my parent's garden and it was delicious.


I cut up the squash into big pieces and boiled them in salted water until it was completely soft.
Cool the pieces and then scrape the squash into a blender with some of the water from the pan.
Add seasonings and, if you want, butter/oil/cream.  I used salt and pepper and coconut oil.

So easy and fast and warms the soul (if you have one).
