Orange Vitamins
I roasted the squash with the idea of making soup but the weather was suddenly summer so I just peeled the squash and shoved it in the fridge, thinking we'd be back to spring in a few days.
Those days flew by and, apparently, summery weather is here to stay. So, I put it into the blender with a splash of OJ and whirled it smooth and silky. Gently reheated and served alongside the tenderloin, it gave us a healthy dose of orange vitamins, a taste treat and a perfect pairing for the pork.

Oh how I love kabocha squash!That sounds wonderful :)
Also was very touched by the piece about your Mom. I lost my Dad 2 years ago and understand how things like handwriting can be such an emotional touchstone.
I just bought my first bottle of five spice powder.Do you mix it with oil? I just shook it on and felt like the result was grainy.
Julie, thanks for the kind words. It's tough losing beloved parents.
Greg, like you, I just shook it on - mine is a very fine powder. But, your idea of mixing it with oil would help to lubricate this fairly lean cut.
