This is the volunteer winter squash from the garden.
It is good, was worth saving.
I made soup with it.
The recipe is from Yvette Van Boven's book Homemade Winter, with a few tweaks.
I try to knit a few rows everyday on my sweater. Originally I was planning on dyeing the sweater with indigo or onion skin when I finished it. I'm thinking now that I might just leave it white. I like it.
I've been thinking about the purpose of color. There are many theories, a lot of information about color that can be found, but what came to mind quickly is that we use color to attract attention, to hide, to shape mood.
