an oldie but a goodie from the archives,
perfect for appetizers or a side with soup or salad
Creamy Butternut Squash Pasta with Sausage and Spinach
from Julia’s Album was the inspiration for

easy to make comfort food that is family friendly,
but special enough for a party

November will be a very delicious month! I need to get some fresh cranberries soon. Thanks for the inspiration, Jenna.
Thank you Angie, I’m looking forward to holiday cooking!
The green beans sound really good! Happy Halloween Jenna, have fun with the kids:@)
Thanks Lynn, I can’t believe it’s November!
As always, fabulous ideas. I love the turkey vase.
Thank you Bernadette!
A delicious month ahead Jenna! I picked up two bags of cranberries from Publix last week. 🙂 Happy Halloween. ♥
I can’t believe it’s November!
Jenna, November is jam packed with flavorful food and recipes. The cranberry pistachio shortbread sounds delicious.
Where did October go?
Thank you Pam, yes, where did October go!
You are making me hungry with all of these food photos. The turkey vase is darling. Happy Halloween Jenna.
Thanks Linda, I’m looking forward to holiday cooking!
No sooner do I get used to it being October, that it’s November! It is terrifying how fast the time flies. I have started working on my Thanksgiving menu, even though my crowd will be small. I found a recipe for cranberry sauce that combines cranberries and blackberries, so I’m going to try that this year.
Cranberries and blackberries sound good! I can’t believe it’s November and we’re thinking about Thanksgiving!
Looking forward to this month… looks like all kinds of yumminess! I’m thankful for all your inspiration!
Enjoy this last day of October!
Thanks so much Nancy!
Jenna, I can’t wait to see what you cook up in the month of November! I can’t believe October is already almost over. It went by in a blink! Wishing you a happy week ahead!
Thanks so much Shannon, I can’t believe we are already in November!
Yumm!
Thanks Tiffany!
November is a tasty month for sure with your recipes. Can you believe it’s November, we need to plan a party 🙂 Love the onion soup recipe, yummy……….
Thank you Emily, hopefully this year the holidays will be more normal…
Lots of good food suggestions today. I’m especially tempted by the peanut butter blondes as I love anything with PB! Happy November.
I’m a PB lover too! Thanks Linda~
No arguments with anything on this list! I just bought cranberries, too — one super-sized bag! One of my fave things at this time of year.
Tis the season!
