~*~*~*~*------ A WORD FROM THE KITCHEN ------*~*~*~*~*~*
T.G.I.F!
Try some wonderful SPICY BAKED ACORN SQUASH this weekend! This would be terrific with a beef, chicken or pork dinner or even keep it in mind for turkey season. We see those mounds of colorful squash at the market and some people have absolutely no idea what the heck
Enjoy!
