Shrouded in black, the mysterious bird creeps to the edge of the sky. It peeps down at the world beneath its feet, shivering a little. A flutter of wings reveals a glowing orange light as it plummets to the ground below, announcing the arrival of dawn. I sit by and drink a cup of black coffee.
Oh, And
I had butternut squash soup today.

It went like this:
I was picking out tomatoes at the grocery store when I looked at the butternut squashes and I was like "Dad, I've never had one of those." and he was like "I've only had it in soup". And I'm like "I wonder what it tastes like.." And he says we can get one and find something to make of it.

So I went to rehearsal and when I came back we made butternut squash soup!
It was really soooooooo freakin' good. If you make it, make sure to put soy sauce and basil into it afterward or it's too bland.

Oh! Oh! Aaaaaaand.
I watched Repo! The Genetic Opera today. And it was AAAAAAAAAAAAAAMAZING.
Like, whoa.
I loved it.

Ok, for really good butternut squash:

Cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, and place it inside down on a greased cookie sheet. Cook it on 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until you can easily insert a fork in the skin. Take it out and turn the halves over. Immediately put some butter on it to let it melt while it cools. Once it has cooled, scoop the insides out into a bowl. Careful not to get the skin. Then add some honey, as much as you want, but I would add a little at a time and taste it until it tastes right. Serve like that.

Or you can take the squash like that and add pineapple to it. That's very good.

Or take it uncooked, without the skin, cut it up in a pan, add orange juice and cinnamon, perhaps some pineapple, and cook it until they are soft.

I love butternut squash. It's one of my favorite.
