The Romano Duo left this morning with all their belongings that have been in storage for two years. They are headed to make their new house in Surprise, Arizona into their Home.

We enjoyed this fun and quick visit with them and look forward to visiting them in the new home once they get settled in and make it their own. Not to mention getting to go swimming!!

Just love the variety of squash this time of year. Kabocha squash soup with fresh ginger, garlic, and sweet onion. Ginger paired with this was heavenly!
