I should’ve taken a photo. This plant randomly popped up in our garden last spring and we let it grow… into a butternut squash that took over a good 1/3 of the garden and produced dozens of squash. So let’s just say my roasted butternut chicken recipe is a result of a bumper crop of squash! Even after giving tons of squash away, I still have a lot left in the garage and was trying to figure out how to […]

So now, I have all these ideas for decorating and no budget. […]
