Feeling Squashed

Apart from my funky attitude lately

concerning the changes in the weather,

and changes in the landscape, I'm finding

myself with many a craving.

Today I pulled out the crockpot

and made a delicious butternut squash

soup. It was my first attempt at squash,

but it must be an easy food. The hints

of cinnamon and nutmeg made me

wish (almost) that snow was falling outside

my window.

So, until I make peace with the dropping leaves

and cold mornings, I'll turn to my crockpot for

the contentment I'm struggling to find.

....I just read this again and almost imploded.

I'm

a

housewife.

I need some new adventures.

and I need them yesterday.
