Fall is Here
Fall is here and nothing says fall more than food featuring pumpkins and squash.
While I love all sorts of pumpkin treats from pumpkin pie, pumpkin muffins, and pumpkin spiced coffee, sometimes I want my pumpkin a little more savory. This pumpkin risotto is the perfect thing for chilly fall evenings. It’s fancy enough for company and yet easy enough for a yummy weeknight meal. You can find the recipe here: Fall Pumpkin Risotto .
Acorn Squash is one of my favorite things to eat in the fall. This Curry Roasted Acorn Squash is the perfect fall side dish. Your house will fill up with the delicious smells of the curry spices and the sweet smell of the roasted acorn squash. This is a very easy dish that comes together in minutes, is low-fat, vegetarian, and full of flavor. You can find the recipe here: Curry Roasted Acorn Squash.

Five on Friday Week 3
Welcome to the third post of Five on Friday. Every Friday I post a list the top five things that made me happy during the week. It could be anything from a new kitchen tool, new product, new food, recipe success, or maybe just a life event. No matter what it is, I share it with you here every Friday.
1 and 2 this week are combined. -I am so happy that this year I have an amazingly sweet class. I got to spend yesterday getting to know them. I am super excited to help them learn and grow this year. I am also very grateful that school started on a Thursday this week, so I can spend two days focusing on setting up the room, getting to know everyone, and teaching procedures before we actually start new lessons next week.
3-This week I ran to Publix for a few little things. I knew it was going to rain, but I thought I could be in and out quickly, however I was wrong. Just as I was checking out the clouds burst with rain. I was very grateful for the gentleman who works there. He watched my groceries, gave me an umbrella so I didn’t get soaked getting to my car, and loaded the groceries into my car for me. I know I have said it before, but this kind of customer service is wonderful and I love Publix!
Also, if you someone does go above and beyond to help you at Publix, please call and let the managers know. The reward the helpful person with food! Everyone loves to be appreciated and it only take a minute to call.
4-I am happy that I get both Saturday and Sunday off this week. Last week we had open house on Saturday and I am very tired!!! I can’t wait to sleep this weekend and go for a long run before breakfast.
5-School is back in session and I am so happy that I made some easy Curry Chicken Salad for lunch. It can be made in advance, it’s low-fat, is made with yogurt for extra protein and probiotics, it has a bit of sweetness from the grapes and a crunch from the almonds, and tastes amazing on crackers or a bed of lettuce. You can click on the link and it will take you right to the recipe so you can try it next week for yourself.
I would love to hear your top five too. Please leave me a comment with your top 5 below. Don’t forget to sign up for the weekly newsletter too. Let’s spread a little joy and be happy for the little things in life. Happy Friday! 😀
