This little acorn from a walk to the grocery store.
Easy Fall Meal
Sauteed Wild Mushrooms and Leeks with butter, fresh sage, tarragon & thyme*
Roasted Squash (this one is a beautiful Delicata) (about 40 min. at 350)
drizzled with light honey and fresh chopped chives & mint.
* this can also be the base to poach a fish like cod, haddock, flounder or sole.
Just lay the fish on top, add s&p to taste, 1/2 c. white wine and simmer 'til fish is done.

ReplyDeletei found some tiny green acorns while shopping last weekend as well. they are like tiny little promises of the season to come.
ReplyDeleteYou always make the best looking meals! It inspires me to branch out and try something new.
ReplyDeleteI like the adventures of the acorn very much. It also reminds me, in the suspended piece, of the tension in the early morning barbed wire photograph at Accept all Offerings blog.
