Hatch Chile time!

It’s that time of year again!  The Hatch Chile’s have arrived from New Mexico and it’s a pretty big deal (at least in our house, lol).  It only happens once a year (they’re harvested in late July), so we have to stock up whilst we can.

So we got some roasted Hatches.

As well as some fresh ones.

And some other products with Hatch Chiles in them…

Salsa

Sourdough bread

And the piece de resistance…a cookbook!! 

I’m going to go back this weekend and get more chiles to stockpile in my freezer because there are TONS of recipes in there that I HAVE to try!

While we were there we grabbed a  few more things that struck our fancy.

pretty gerbers!

Some awesome juices (they juice them right there in front of you!)

Orange/pineapple

Orange/Carrot

And a few other things I didn’t take pics of.  (a pineapple, some pears, and some blueberries)

We also went SHOE SHOPPING!  Hubby was desperately in need of some new shoes for work, his were starting to look pretty ragged.  And I snagged a pretty cute pair of boots!  Slouchy and comfy and way cute!

And a trip to Borders for another book (the next in the Sookie Stackhouse series).  I think I keep them and Barnes and Noble in business.

Then HOME for dinner.

Leftover turkey burgers (from last night) on our new hatch chile sourdough (toasted of course!)

Delishhh!

Whew!  I’m beat.  This morning before all of the shopping madness I drug my booty out of bed around 4:45.  I had to take my grandmother for a colonoscopy.  Who schedules something like this so early in the morning?!  I haven’t gotten up that early in a loooong time and I didn’t sleep well at all last night.  I’m beat, I think it’s time for bed!

Night!
