Butternut squash soup from Vom Fass

This recipe has existed on a post-it flag in my kitchen for at least a year. I don't know how it has survived, but it's earned the staying power of a "keeper" recipe.

2lb butternut squash, cut into 1-in cubes and cooked until tender in large soup pot

Add 1 chopped onion, 2T olive oil, and 6c chicken broth. Salt and pepper to taste. 

Drizzle with pumpkin seed oil if you have it, and a dollop of sour cream if desired.

Julie Kendrick's Soup Swap Tomato Soup

The classic soup made by my friend Julie Kendrick at her bi-annual soup swap. She serves it on a bed of rice. Heaven.

Turkey Focaccia Club Sandwich Recipe

Here it is. THE sandwich recipe I look for like a crazy person at least once a year. Now, published here for my reading pleasure. I like it because of the unique mix of flavors (cranberry pecan dressing! bacon!) and that you can make it in advance, so it's handy for get-togethers. It holds up well.
