Some Soup for a Rainy Day!

It's one of those yucky, rainy, ugly days. The sky is cloudy, it's pouring and you just don't feel like doing anything. 
Believe me, I know the feeling!
The thing that I like most on raining days?
Why, soup, of course!

I looooove butternut squash soup! It's a great fall recipe since butternut squash is usually 
in season during the fall.
I've made this recipe several times, and it's absolutely delicious!
