About last night...

So. I was supposed  to have a Scandal Party last night  but no one showed up:/

But I watched it this morning before work and honeyyyyyy.....my heart stopped several times, toooo many people were read for filth, and  the end was a true jaw dropper as usual!  I won't go into too much detail about last night's episode but  I will say that Olivia FINALLY stood up to Fitz and justice was served all the way around.  If you are a fan of the show GO CHECK IT OUT NOW!!! 

Anywho. Even though my Scandal party was a fail my  Butternut  Squash soup was a true hit! Making the soup was  suprisingly easy and fun... thanks to the all powerful Ninja Pulse. From which life is given. Daily. LOL

 Honestly, the most  difficult part is peeling the squash, and with the right  vegetable  peeler I'm sure it would be a breeze. 

The Ingredients:

1 butternut squash

6 garlic cloves 

1/4 cup of Olive Oil

Salt and pepper to taste

3 cups of chicken broth or water 

What to do:

Step 1: Peel and seed your squash (like I said, this is the difficult part, just purchase  a vegetable  peeler and your life will be much easier:)

Step 2: Cut the squash up and place it on a cookie  sheet with your garlic cloves. At this point your oven should be preheated to 350°

Step 3: Drizzle  the squash and garlic cloves with the olive oil and your preferred seasonings then place it in the oven for about 40 minutes or until  it is tender.

Step 4: When you have finished roasting  the squash you might be tempted to taste it before the next step . Go ahead! It reminded  me of a sweet potato! Yum! 

Step 5: OK, so after  the initial  taste test, you need to put the roasted  squash and garlic in the blender. Now the fun begins! Pour the water or chicken  broth in sparingly until you reach your desired consistency. You may need more or less liquid  depending on how thick you like it;)

Step 6: When you put the roasted squash in the blender  it should still be hot from the oven but if it isn't or you just want to keep it warm you can pour it into a pot and put it on simmer. 

Step 7: Garnish and enjoy!
