Little Trees (this is not about broccoli)

Where have I been? Well one reason for my absence is that Tom and I took a motorcycle trip to the White Mountains and Vermont.

This has nothing to do with food or cooking, but I can't resist sharing my favorite photo from our trip. While riding through Berlin, NH, we came upon a manufacturing plant for Little Trees. We love goofy roadside attractions, so we had to stop and take this picture.

As we pulled into the parking lot, we were surrounded by the overwhelming smell of Little Trees. I can't imagine how strong it must smell inside the building.

Finally, it's not too hot to cook

This past week was brutally hot. I was completely wilted at the end of each workday. Everything we ate for dinner last week was grilled because after hot days in other people's kitchen's I couldn't bear to turn on my stove. This morning we woke up to a cool, dry day. One of my first thoughts was "hooray, I can use the stove again!"

I had some ground turkey that I needed to cook, so I made Taco Stuffed Peppers. I was planning to save these for my lunches this week and to bake some chicken for dinner, but Tom smelled the taco meat mixture cooking and asked if we could have them for dinner tonight. We'll have the chicken tomorrow.
