Bake for 20 – 25 minutes until squash is soft and starting to brown. Arrange the squash on a parchment lined baking sheet. Place the squash in a large bowl, drizzle the olive oil and spices over, then use your hands to toss the squash and evenly distribute the spices. Slice the squash into half moons about a 1/2 inch thick. Preheat the oven to 400☏. Remove the top of the squash, slice in half, and scoop the seeds out of each half. Check your spice rack or herb garden for inspiration, and then let us know what you try! I think the possibilities are endless when for spice combinations, but I’ve tried garlic and fresh sage, cumin seeds and smoked paprika, and cayenne + chili powder + cumin + coriander. Place the squash in a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil and spices, roast until soft. Simply chop a squash in half, scoop out the seeds, and slice into half moons. Acorn squash with savory spices is now one of my favorites. In a small bowl, microwave together the maple syrup, butter, cinnamon, cloves, and salt for about 60 seconds, until the butter has melted. Lay each cut half on its flat side, and cut straight down toward the cutting board to make 1-inch thick slices. Like delicata, you can just slice the squash into half rings or whole rings and roast with the skin on. Use a melon baller or spoon to remove the inner seeds and strings. Acorn squash is not the worst squash at all. I noticed that acorn has a nutty flavor when you season it mildly, someone even told me they like with just salt and pepper which sounded crazy, but now I get it. But this year I created a naturally sweet acorn squash, with maple syrup. My first few seasons as a CSA member I even let the acorn sit on the counter until I eventually composted it. I mostly shied away from acorn, going for naturally sweet butternut and delicata. Arrange the squash on your baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes then flip each piece and roast for another 10-15 minutes or until the squash is golden. Add to a bowl and toss with the olive oil, herbs, and spices. Slice the acorn squash into rings and scoop out the seeds. Sure, it tasted great but as an adult I wanted something a little less sugary. Preheat the oven to 400☏ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Growing up the only way I had it was drenched in brown sugar and butter. With the tip of a knife, poke the squash all over the outside to release steam as it roasts. I used to think acorn squash was the worst winter squash. Turn squash halves over and place cut side down on the baking sheet.

NewsĬommunity Health Centers of Oklahoma named operator of MAPS 3 Senior Health and Wellness Center Every MAPS initiative has essentially been a 10 to 12-year process, and the same is expected of MAPS 3. The original MAPS projects were also completed a few years after the last tax funds were collected. Because of the time it takes to plan and build school buildings, not all of the projects were complete when the tax ended. For example, the MAPS for Kids sales tax, passed in 2001, took effect in 2002 and ended in 2008. MAPS projects are built debt free, and over time the money is collected and spent efficiently, without burdening future taxpayers. Learn more about MAPS 4 at okc.gov/maps4. Learn more about MAPS 3 at okc.gov/maps3.Īfter one more extension of the penny sales tax to fund part of the Better Streets, Safer City program, Oklahoma City voters endorsed MAPS once again by approving MAPS 4 on Dec. In 2008, residents approved another short-term, one-cent sales tax after the MAPS for Kids tax expired to fund improvements at the downtown arena and build an off-site practice facility to accommodate the new NBA franchise, the Oklahoma City Thunder. When the last facility is constructed, the program will have built or renovated 70 Oklahoma City Public School buildings and provided funding for hundreds of other metro area school projects. Seventy percent of the sales tax funds were disbursed to the Oklahoma City Public School District and 30 percent to surrounding suburban districts. The new sales tax generated $514 million along with a $180 million Oklahoma City Public Schools bond issue, which was used for school facility improvements, technology and transportation projects.

As a small Canadian business that manufactures in Canada, its extremely challenging for a small team to grow so quickly and try to meet our usual expectation of high quality and excellent customer support. As you can imagine we are working day and night to get all the orders out, expand the team, train new team members and improve our production abilities. Hi Cat, Thank you for bringing this to our attention and I am so sorry! Our team is completely overwhelmed with 10x more orders than we have ever received. So thank you again for your review and our team hopes to hear from you soon so we can take care of your order! I promise you that we will respond to you immediately and make sure to expedite your order to you! Although your 1 star review will ultimately hurt our business, the amazing people we employ, and our mission to help animals, we none theless appreciate the feedback and our team is working so hard, day and night to get everything sent out. So I am really sorry about that! Our small business is going through a bumpy growth spurt and we are working really hard to get our service level back to what it used to be! In regards to your order, if you could please email our customer support team again, mention that you left a Trustpilot review. Our customer support team are also working really hard to catch up on all the tickets we received. We have been hard at work on that the past 2 weeks and I am happy to say that orders are now moving really fast. Thankfully we are not out of business! The truth is that we had such a successful launch and our products are in such high demand right now that we had to quickly hire new staff, train them and improve our production line so we can get more orders done. In the future I hope this company's reps are trained in a way that makes the customer feel like the company cares about their issues.Hi Drew, Thank you for your message. Things were not explained clearly, something that is crucial to have when communicating with customers over text. I am happy to pay the $10 IF TagsForHope had offered to adjust the price difference when I went down in sizing. It is rare that a customer needs to pay shipping for an exchange. It's a shame that my error has caused me to experience a negative view of the company. This has certainly been a negative experience overall, and would not have happened had I chosen the correct product size to begin with, which I own as my error. That made no sense to me, until several days later when the customer service rep added that returning my items costs upwards of $15 shipping for a return. The customer service rep offered me to submit a warranty claim for $10, and they will send me the 5/8" sizing instead, which is cheaper from the 1" products by $15. I take full ownership that I messed up, I should have measured more carefully. Context: I purchased an easy harness and 8ft leash set in 1" width, which was the wrong size for my dog. In this case, the cost of returning the products was omitted until I pressed further into why paying $10 for a warranty for a product that is not equal value made sense. Everything should be presented upfront for the customer to process what they would like to do. I am not happy with the explanations that were given in to me in pieces from this company. You can call your bank and sort this out, but in the meantime, I went ahead and issued you an additional refund in the amount of $1 to make up for the fee! I hope this helps, Anna! But in the meantime, if you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us by email! We are always here to help! Sophie TagsforHope "Woof" Team Įdit: A different customer care manager was able to assist me exchange my items. Unfortunately it sometimes happens, as we are located in Canada and some US banks see us an "international" and charge this fee to their customers. Please know that this is not our charge, but an "international fee" imposed by your bank. As for the 99 cent charge, I am sorry that happened. So please allow a few more days for the funds to go back to your account. Credit card companies typically need 3-5 business days to process a refund - it doesn't happen instantly. I am sorry it affected the production of your order, but I see that it is shipped and on it's way to you! According to tracking, it should arrive on April 29 so please be on the lookout for it! I also see that the 15% refund was only issued to you about 3 days ago. We are unfortunately delayed in manufacturing due to a large volume of orders following our harnesses launch. Hi Anna, Thank you so much for your feedback and I am truly sorry for any trouble! Firstly, I apologize that your order took slightly longer to manufacture than it normally would. |
