Butternut Squash & Pear Soup with Rosemary Croutons

butternut-squash-pear-soup_2

Okay so the soup I mentioned last week? This is it. And you need to stop what you’re doing and make it right now (it’s an order). My cousin and I found the recipe and whipped it up on a whim last Saturday. At the time I had no intentions on sharing it with you guys; that is, until we took our first bite. I immediately scooped some into a container so that I could style it and photograph it the next day for you guys (I know. The life of a blogger. I judge me too). But seriously – it’s SO damn good. And I’m willing to be weird for the sake of a really awesome post.
