I made this soup last year and it was so good!!! I was looking for the catelog which it was printed in and couldn't find it. I was so glad to find it here! I have the butternut squash all saved up and might even make it tonight so that we can eat it tomorrow and put some in the freezer. SO GOOD! - 11/13/11
