text: A traditional Caesar Salad and a less-traditional Winter Kale and Cabbage Salad with pumpkin seeds and dried Craisins rounded out the salad section.
  Since that picture of a covered tureen probably doesn’t help you much 😉 , here’s a shot of my bowl of Roasted Butternut Squash Soup, one of my favorite items of the meal. Creamy and buttery, with just a hint of autumnal spice.
  I typically don’t go for a whole lot of salad at buffets (go figure), but I found this one to be a nice, refreshing change of pace. The pomegranate seeds lent a good bit of crunch — with a festive red color, to boot — and the sweet pear balanced the more peppery flavor of the arugula.
