Having stuffed peppers for dinner this evening brought back a funny memory from the distant past.
When our children were teen-agers, we had stuffed peppers for dinner one Sunday afternoon and there were a couple left. Knowing the kids wouldn’t be home for dinner the next day, I said to Mr. H., “We can have left-overs tomorrow if you don’t mind.” Of course, he didn’t mind. We don’t agree on many things, but stuffed peppers are that one rare thing we both like.
So, the next evening, when it was time to fix dinner, I
took the casserole dish out of the fridge that had the peppers in it and put it
into the oven to warm while I put together some things to go with them. When
everything was ready, the table set and drinks fixed, I took the dish out of
the oven, removed the lid and got the surprise of my life!
There were peppers alright... but nothing in them! How
could I have guessed that our son would raid the refrigerator after we’d gone to bed
and eat the stuffing out of the peppers? And then put the dish back
in the fridge!
Mr. H. and I looked at each other for a full 30 seconds
before we broke into laughter.
And then ordered pizza.
