butternut squash risotto

we've had this butternut squash from our ecofarm CSA sitting in the kitchen for about two weeks now. unfortunately, i haven't had a day off in as many weeks, so i haven't had a free evening to cook a nice meal. i made this recipe that i got from shu's blog. these freshly-cut butternut squash halves were ready for baking.

here's the finished product with arugula and avocado salad. a beer from new belgium, of course, goes well with this meal.

i feel like i've been working like a dog lately. today is my last shift before the blue ridge relay this weekend. my teammates and i will be leaving early tomorrow morning, heading for grayson highlands in virginia.
