YAY!

I could not be more thrilled... I've spent a lovely weekend with stentoriansista. We went to Larriland Farms on Saturday and bought probably $75 worth of fruit - raspberries, white raspberries, blackberries, probably 20 pounds of apples and peaches. We've got a raspberry crisp about to be made, blackberry wine sorbet churning and we're going to make apple bread

sounds like a lovely weekend - where did you go swim?

I am itching to try that curried squash and apple soup. When you add the chicken/turkey to it, do you really puree the meat in the blender, too?

[kestrel127]

I really do, yes. I know it seems weird, but it basically creams the chicken into the soup in a way that makes it quite tasty.

Let me just say from experience, though, make sure you peel your squash completely. Squash peel doesn't cook down so much as get really hard and stick in your teeth.

Thanks for posting that swimplan link. I just started swimming and it looks really helpful

This was my first time using it, but I really like the idea of it, even if it seems to be very, very into freestyle (of course, I only really do freestyle & breaststroke, but I'd rather play w/ pulleys & kickboards than do 45 minutes of breastroke).
