This NAPODPOMO MindFULL Musing continues along the theme, "What do you do with something you inherit, but don’t really want?" Either you try and get your sibling to take it or you re-create it into something you love. Listen in and think about what you have that you might re-purpose into something that adds a new twist to an old item. Visit us on IG and maybe post a picture!

Finding Pieces and Making Something Fun

Today's NAPODPOMO's MindFULL Musing is about doing something with the pieces you have - cards from folks you love, articles you've clipped, postcards, papers, journal entries etc. Perhaps you cleared out the homes of someone you love. What do you do with it all? Check out the link below to a Zoom class on making a collage with Judith Cassel-Mamet. It will fill your mind with great ideas and your space with wonderful art!

Souper Sunday

Today's NAPODPOMO's MindFULL Musing is my new made up tradition, Souper Sunday! It's November and we just turned the clocks back. The days are gonna be shorter and colder, so today I'm musing on how to warm my insides. Below is a recipe I refer to in the episode: Jane's Butternut Squash and Leek Soup. I also suggest coming up with an intention to set for the week. Let us know if you try to do both!
Butternut Squash and Leek Soup

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 leeks with and tender green parts only, coarsely chopped
1 celery rib, chopped
1 garlic clove smashed
1 quart chicken stock
1 large butternut squash peeled and cut into 12 inch dice (3 cups)
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 large bay leaf
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
14 cup flat leaf parsley leaves
Cream or milk is optional (almost never use)

Melt the butter in a large heavy saucepan. Add the leeks, celery and garlic and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally until softened.
Add the stock, squash, tomato paste an bay leaf. Season with salt and pepper and simmer over moderately low heat until all the vegetables are tender about 25 minutes. Discard bay lea. You can leave in or remove the parsley.
Puree the soup. Taste for seasoning.
