yummie autumn soup

Chop large onion and sautee with a bit of salt until glassy.
Add chopped butternut squash, carrots, a parsnip, and apples.   Amounts are sort of...  improvisational.
Season with a hunk of fresh ginger, some cayenne, and some cinnamon.
Add water and boil until everything is soft.

Let cool, remove the ginger, then puree in a blender with milk.

MMMM, good.
