It's squash season, and delicata is nutritious, sweet and easy to prepare (no peeling required!). Wash well, dry, cut in half lengthwise, remove the seeds and slice into ½ inch half-moon shaped pieces. Toss with a bit of oil and your favorite herbs. Thyme and paprika are favorites, although sage and rosemary are delicious, too. Lay the pieces flat on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 30-40 minutes at 425 degrees, or until golden and tender. Let us know if you give delicata squash a try!

As practicing kindness should be a part of our everyday lives, World Kindness Day is a good reminder that it is also important to receive kindness. Accept the help, the compliment or the compassion. Be open.
