Hey, you're weird

I came home from San Francisco this Monday to a wonderful hubby, two overly excited pups, a pile of really beautiful and yummy veggies, and a mountain of multicolored bell peppers waiting for me on my kitchen counter - a gift from a friend of ours who has a lovely organic garden.
The word has apparently been getting out to our friends that I'm a weirdo who lives on raw plants.
I'm not complaining about this, it's a wonderful thing to get fresh produce for free, but due to my lack of energy this week, and slight lack of creativity, my brain is frantically searching for ways to preserve all of this lovely food.
At the moment I've got all of the bell peppers chopped up and in the dehydrator. Dehydrating bell peppers smells SO wonderful! If you haven't done this yet  I recommend it! You can easily rehydrate them by soaking in warm water, or grind them into a powder in a coffee grinder for a yummy spice to add to salads, dips and dressings. I think I'm going to use some of the dried bell pepper in a new recipe idea for flat bread.


Anwho - I hope you are all having a wonderful week so far. I'm tired and boring at the moment, my apologies. I promise to fire back with something exciting very soon. For now...nighty night.
