Guess I better add Cooking to my Title of the Blog.

Today I decided I would roast some Poblano peppers and stuff a few tonight with some cheese, sausage and rice. No, I do not have a recipe. It's winging it time!
I went out on the deck and picked several peppers.  I washed them and then cut the tops off and seeded them.  I did keep some seeds to plant next year.
I watched a YouTube tutorial on blistering the peppers but I did it before quite a long time ago.  I figured I could do it again.
I had to split the peppers in two bunches as I had quite a few.  I rubbed each pepper down with olive oil and put them in a pan with sides.  I know how oil is and how the moisture runs amuck and I sure didn't want that burning in my oven.  Put the broiler on Hi and propped the door open and turned on the exhaust fan.  I could hear the popping and snapping of the skin. No, I am sure it wasn't Rice Crispy's. I turned them all over and after a few more minutes I took them out of the oven and put them in a glass bowl and put a plate on top. Need to let them steam.
I put in the other batch then.  I guess my smoke alarm decided I was getting too much smoke even with the exhaust fan on so beep, beep, beep!  I waved a towel at it and Hubby turned on the attic fan. That did it, smoke alarm quit......until I turned the peppers over. LOL! Oh well, waved the towel, turned on the fan and that was it.  By then the peppers were done, so I put them in another bowl with a plate lid on top to let them steam.
I know I waited longer then the 15 minutes, or seems like I did. I went in, took off the plate and proceeded to peel.  The peels came off really slick. There might have been a couple more stubborn about releasing their skin, but all in all wasn't a bad process.
Gonna stuff with rice, sausage and cheese mixture for supper and for those I don't use, will freeze for a later date!
By the way, Poblano peppers are a milder pepper but while cleaning them and washing off in hot water, I still sneezed, got my sinuses cleaned out and after peeling them I sure had to wash hands and rinse with some vinegar. You guessed right, no gloves!

Pictures should be in order that I did the peppers.

    I fixed some of these for supper. Browned off 1lb of sausage and added maybe 1/4 of an onion chopped fine. I cooked white long grained rice. After sausage was done I put in 1 pt of my tomatoes and green chilies. Added a pint of cooked rice. While that was heating I stuffed 8 poblano with munster cheese curds. Used a toothpick to hold the together somewhat. I added a little say 1/2 cup, of my tomato juice and stirred the mixture then poured over the top of the peppers. I was using the 9x9 pan or it could be 8x8 I have no clue. I baked it at 375°F for around 20-25 mins until bubbling. I sliced off some Velveeta cheese on top and when melted took the dish from the oven. It is wonderful! Have some left for another meal. I had my canned peaches with it.

On Losing A Family Member By Mary J Williams © She may have 4 paws And a tail that wiggles My friendly dog That made me giggle She loved to chase squirrels Until they were out of sight Just showing them Catching them she might I lost this dear friend On February 18, 2024 My little Rosebud Knocked at Heavens door I am going to miss her She was with us for twelve years Every time I think of her My eyes fill up with tears Her other companion Of the four-legged kind Lacy, her buddy Still has her in her mind She won’t come in the room She spent most of her days Her buddy isn’t with her So, she just stays away It’s not been very long About three days is all I’m sure it will be better The good times we will recall So, Rosebud, we loved you With all of our hearts Just remember Rosebud We actually will never part Will think of you often And when it’s my time to go I will meet up with you again  The Good Lord will make it so                              We used my dad's birthday as a

I'm Worn Out!

It’s Nice Outside By Mary J Williams © I thought about the birds Stepped outside the door The sun was shining brightly Which I just adore! I knew I had washing So went down the stairs Transferred wash to the dryer I know you don’t care! I looked at the floor I need to sweep just a bit Went to get the broom My brain did a flip Feed the birds first Seeing as they have none They need some food Get that chore done The can that holds All the sunflower seed The bungee cord is broken A squirrel probably did the deed The cord held the lid down This has happened before Racoons and squirrels chew it Not going to get the lid off no more I finally found one in the basement That would fit like the old one Now that the birds are fed I found another thing to get done Blew the leaves out of the garage Out from the corner of the door Blew them across the driveway Where I will let them store Pick them up in spring After the birds dig through them Finding all the bugs, worms, and insects Among the rottin

Winter-Yard Gardens Birds Critters and ME

Winter-the Yard, Birds and Critters and Me by Mary J Williams It's sort of winter but the weather is mild You can be outside Which makes me smile Weeds were pulled and I planted a seed one was a tree If it grows, it will surprise me I have had fun watching the birds an argument between bluebirds and the Robins I've heard Chickadees flying in and the Titmouse too I grab the camera Then off they flew I have a flowerbox sits on the rail It's on the two by six so falling will fail It also can sit on a two by four but mine just has the space The birds walk through the tunnel and disappear without a trace One time, while filling the feeders One of the tunnels had a bird A sparrow was in there  He ran so fast, he was blurred I love watching them  they think the tunnels fun Maybe they get cool If there's a lot of sun. I have to wash the deck  to try and keep it clean with bird seed and poop Dog pee I mean When it's cold outside Or very early morn The dogs do their business
