Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.......

Today was our second day off this week. So, since all errands were done on Tuesday we decided to make a butternut squash and chesnut lasagna. Jaime has been dying to make this recipe for almost a year now and well today was FINALLY the day to do just that! Well, after gathering most of the ingredients it was time to find a main ingredient....the Chestnuts! Come to find out chesnuts are seasonal....who knew?!? Hence the song, "chestnuts roasting on an open fire..." . Anyways, we were able to substitute water chestnuts which turned out to work just fine.

The finished product! YUMMMMMMMM!!!

This was a great recipe despite the little chestnut setback!
Shopping was another part of our day because I wanted to take advantage of tax free weekend! So, guess what I finally bought.................my red shoes!!!


From our dinner table to yours,
J&C
