Welcome to the Misadventures of Widowhood blog!
Welcome to my World---Woman, widow, senior citizen seeking to live out my days with a sense of whimsy as I search for inner peace and friendships. Jeez, that sounds like a profile on a dating app and I have zero interest in them, having lost my soul mate of 42 years. Life was good until it wasn't when my husband had a massive stroke and I spent the next 12 1/2 years as his caregiver. This blog has documented the pain and heartache of loss, my dark humor, my sweetest memories and, yes, even my pity parties and finally, moving past it all. And now I’m ready for a new start, in a new location---a continuum care campus in West Michigan, U.S.A. Some people say I have a quirky sense of humor that shows up from time to time in this blog. Others say I make some keen observations about life and growing older. Stick around, read a while. I'm sure we'll have things in common. Your comments are welcome and encouraged. Jean

Here's one of my favorite recipes from the cooking-for-one class. I have it for dinner all the time now:
ReplyDeletePEPPERS AND BACON
1 bell pepper (red, yellow, or orange)
2 slices turkey bacon
1/2 cup shredded reduced fat cheddar
chopped scallions to taste
Dab of reduced fat sour cream
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cut pepper in Quarters. Remove stems and seeds.
Place pepper slices on a shallow pan lined with foil, insides up. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, until slices are soft.
Meanwhile, cook bacon on both sides until crispy (I do it in the microwave). Let cool, then chop into small pieces.
Once pepper slices are done, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Don't turn off the over. Blot away any excess liquid from peppers.
Sprinkle pepper slices evenly with shredded cheese, scallions, and chopped bacon. Return to the oven and bake until cheese has melted 5-10 minutes. Serve with sour cream.
