Liz: I really like Reichs...will need to check out the one you mentioned.

I like the sounds of the Greek version. I just finished a mystery ("206 Bones" by Kathy Reichs -- very good, especially if you're into that series), and have yet to start a new one. (I did finish about 9:45 last night!) Got a couple non-fiction reads going, including one that's about food. This one is <a href="http://www.mindbodyfxbook.com/" rel="nofollow"> The MindBody FX Lifestyle</a> and is about mastering that mind-body connection for losing weight permanently. This is an area of struggle for me -- lost 30 pounds about 4 years ago, but have put about half back on and am struggling to get it back off before my birthday in May. And I exercise a lot! So this has got a lot of positives for me to absorb, including reprogramming your mind, the power of positive thinking and overcoming the beliefs that limit us. Yes, you still have to expend more calories than you take in. But I already knew that! This is more ammunition in the ongoing struggle.

Two of my favorite things - a personal memoir and a yummy recipe. I used to make a Greek-style stuffer pepper with feta cheese and mint. I think my kids would rather go to bed without dinner ... They're palates are still developing :) This book and the fun guest post have my attention! Two of my favorite things – a personal memoir and a yummy recipe.

My stuffed pepper recipe is also different from this one...I'm looking forward to checking this one out! Lisa: LOL! Andi: You're welcome! Susan: I agree - this recipe sounds yummy! Glad you also enjoyed the book! Les: I would think you could definitely use other than green peppers. I've made stuffed peppers with red peppers and they were delicious. And YES, definitely eat the pepper too :) Kathy: I agree – it was a fun post wasn’t it? My stuffed pepper recipe is also different from this one…I’m looking forward to checking this one out!

I'm so anxious to read this book! And, believe it or not, I have never made (or eaten) stuffed peppers. This recipe sounds delicious and I wonder if I can use red or orange peppers in lieu of green. I prefer the sweeter flavor of those (and I'm assuming one eats the pepper along with the stuffing). Mmmm! Lovely guest post. I’m so anxious to read this book!

Thanks so much. My children would think I was trying to kill them if I fed them stuffed peppers, but my parents love them so I will pass this on. Sounds good. I loved reading this!! Thanks so much.

The recipe is a little different from my stuffed pepper recipe, so I'll have to give it a try. What beautiful memories!
