Creamy Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato Soup

Well, I just started typing out this post and the power went out! I'm glad it didn't stay out otherwise I don't know how I would have finished my meal! This soup is amazing. I could put spice in there to counter balance the sweetness but I like it just how it is. Super simple and tasty crock pot recipe. Make sure you cook some chicken or pork to go with it for protein!
