So-So Soup

My roasted curry butternut squash soup is velvety and everyone seems to like it. Not wanting to go to the grocery today as I’m still watching over the dog and washing her bath towels like mad, I took a bag of carrots and roasted them.

I placed them in the food processor with chicken broth, then in a pot and added some half-and-half. While doing that I did toast some hot curry powder in a dry pan until our home smelled of India.

It ended up grainy, not with chunks but grains of carrot. It was tasty and spicy but next time I’ll put it in the blender for a more uniform consistency. Live and learn. Carrots are much more difficult than squash.

Oh, the dog is better, though I’m still keeping an eye on her as she is sleeping more than usual. I blamed myself for giving her hamburger, then finally my husband said that while he was talking to someone on a walk she may have eaten something dead from the sidewalk or path. That would explain things. She’s not going to die, at least not now. Thanks for reading! 74 posts until retirement! Dee

  1. Aha – the good ol’ “garbage enteritis”! Glad Ms Zoe is on the mend…

  2. What can I say? We feed her great food and she eats dead stuff from behind the bushes. She’s fine but getting older and slowing down.
