Red Cabbage and Delicata Squash Dinner Salad

I found this recipe in The Pumpkin Cookbook by Deedee Stovel.  I just love that cookbook and am obsessed with this recipe. The only drawback is that delicata squash is really only available in season. This dinner salad is best eaten right away. It does 

Creamy Carrot and Apple Soup

I love making this soup right at the beginning of fall, before it gets too cold (or anytime in SoCal since it’s never cold lol). It’s warm but refreshing. And the bright color is fun. I also often serve it for Thanksgiving. If you enjoy

This recipe is so easy, I almost didn’t post it. But my husband thought it was so delicious I had to give you guys the recipe. The original recipe is from womansday.com and I have not changed anything about it (yet). The difficult and time
