Pumpkin Stew

By: Meg Josephson

Narrated by: Saskia Maarleveld

Experience the smells, sounds, textures, signs, and tastes of the kitchen as a daughter lovingly prepares squash stew for her family on a brisk fall day.

Bedtime stories are narrated by the world’s most celebrated voices and written with no beginning, middle, or end so you don’t stay up to hear what happens next. They're interesting enough to give your mind something to focus on but delivered in a way that encourages sleep.

This title is part of the Audible Sleep Collection, exclusive audio experiences created to invite relaxation and sleep. New and free for members.

PLEASE MAKE MORE!!!

I LOVE ALL OF THE BEDTIME STORIES! THEY REALLY HELP ME FALL ASLEEP. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS I'VE LISTENED TO ALL OF THEM NUMEROUS TIMES. PLEASE MAKE MORE!!!! PLEASE AND THANK YOU!

I have never reached the end of this story.

I have never managed to reach the end of this story, and that is a high compliment. This gets me to sleep just about every night. The story is mundane and calming in the loveliest way and takes my mind off of my life long enough for me to fall asleep. Highly, highly recommend.

It works!

This is part of Audible’s sleep series, and it works! I put it on twice and didn’t get to the end before I was asleep. Finally listened to the ending out of curiosity today. It’s boring by design, but a sweet story. I can relate to the descriptions of cooking as meditation and appreciated the little reminders to notice my breath or parts of my body. A nice little piece for encouraging sleep.

Listen.. fall asleep… repeat.

I didn’t know a short story about the normal steps of cooking a meal could be so relaxing. Well done!

Soothing and wonderful

Like a big bowl of comfort food, this story is warm, soothing, and wonderful. I loved it! I wish they'd do more like it. It did make me a little hungry, though, LOL.
