Feature Recipe Idea: Butternut Squash Bisque
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon neutral oil
1 tablespoon butter
½ cup diced onion
2 cloves finely minced garlic
4 cups peeled and cubed butternut squash
¾ cup diced carrots
3 cups vegetable stock
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Ground nutmeg to taste
½ cup heavy cream (Optional)
Directions: Heat oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until tender. Add garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Add squash, carrots, vegetable stock, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until vegetables are tender. Puree in a blender or food processor until smooth, then return to the pot and stir in heavy cream. Heat through without boiling. Serve warm with a dash of nutmeg.
Feature Idea: Home Décor Tip
Create a little gratitude corner in your apartment this November! Set out a small decorative jar or bowl with slips of paper where you can jot down something you’re thankful for each day. Add a few handwritten notes, a favorite photo, or a small vase of fall branches to make it feel personal. By the end of the month, you’ll have a collection of little reminders of the good things that make your space feel like home.
November Virtual Fun: Gratitude Wall
Create a virtual gratitude wall where neighbors can share what they’re thankful for this November! Set up a shared digital space using a simple tool like a Google Form, then invite residents to post notes about little joys, favorite memories, or people they appreciate. Share the wall through your resident portal, email, or social media to spread positivity and celebrate the many things that make your community special.
