My new favorite fall squash has to be the Butternut! It has a nuttier flavor to it then others and I love how easy the are to peel! I simply cut the neck of the squash – the bottom half is where all the seeds are and my chickens LOVE this for a treat! Next…
1/2 cup Vermont Maple Syrup 2 cups milk 1 pint vanilla ice cream Add ingredients to the blender and mix. Serve chilled.
Loaf of Maple Oatmeal Bread
While I’m not complaining about the much-needed rain we’ve been having, it does make me change my menus a little bit! I dusted off my bread machine (which hubby says has a Lot of dust from in frequent usage!) and made this simple loaf of Maple Oatmeal Bread. We had it with a nice roast chicken dinner and tonight I’ll serve the last of it with the chili that’s in the crockpot.
