Wednesday

Hm, running late, fell asleep watching Nova. Previously watched a great Nature programme on elephants called The Soul of Elephants. Only thing that spoilt it was they said in the time we had watched the programme (less than an hour) 5 elephants had been poached. An amazing husband and wife team who get really close to elephants, incredible pictures and insight into their lives.

ladydog turned up at lunchtime today and suggested Subs. Great idea. She and I went down the road to get them and we came back and enjoyed lunch together. Matt said he had really enjoyed it.

I then went to make stuffed peppers in the Instant Pot. I had done them last week, it was a resounding success. I did them this week and it was a resounding disaster. They fell apart on me and didn't work well at all. We did eat a couple of them for supper, but... I had a pack of 6 peppers, went to get the last one out and it was almost completely liquid. Never seen a pepper do that.before, the rest were fine. I complained and as I had to go get some shopping I went and got another pepper.  I also got some more ground beef and I still haven't split it up to freeze.

Gotta get up early to get my tooth pulled, looking forward to that. It rained today, hope it doesn't tomorrow or I will be a tad damp walking to the dentist.

I am getting a new power supply for my computer, I had the option of a new one or a used one and opted for the new. Probably silly but... Supposed to get it back tomorrow.

All for now.

Have a great day

  1. Maybe the peppers were too ripe? You know how they start to get squishy if they are in the fridge too long?
    Someone was telling me her grandson just visited an elephant refuge in Tennessee. I must google that today. I DVR'd the program so will watch it later.

    1. I think you are probably right Denise. If one was liquid, the others must have been on their way except they felt fine when I was deseeding them. Oh well.

      Interesting, Tennessee seems an odd place for an elephant refuge unless it's for circus or zoo elephants. Good programme.

  2. We've been watching a lot of animal specials lately. What annoys me is when there are starving or hurt animals and the film crew just keeps filming until they are dead. Do something, don't just film it!

    1. I know what you mean Diane but they are not supposed to interfere. Nature is to be left alone, particularly by film crews.

  3. I like watching animal shows, too. Hope you aren't in too much pain today when the tooth comes out! Fingers crossed. What a nice surprise to have ladydog come and visit!

    1. Me too Lisa, with some reservations, I know all the problems and don't want reminding, but I guess there are people who do. Got some pain at the moment but not devastating at the moment. As you say, fingers crossed.
