As I am ineffective in my duties as a Great Pepper (or senior officer of this local organization) I have resigned effective immediately. I will turn this page over to the person or persons assuming responsibility. It has been an honor to serve but as they say doing the same things over and over again expecting a different result is insanity. I choose not to travel that road.

The Heart of Tennessee Pod is pleased to announce that we met with the organizers of a local Chili Cookoff in regard to creating a CASI division in the event. As the CCO is scheduled for early October, it was decided to have a "pro" division this year with the intent to create a CASI division next year. We are excited to help this cookoff grow and raise money for charity!! https://www.facebook.com/MannaCafeChiliCookOff

From the Experimental Omelettes Breakfast Recipe Collection. This is a great way to use leftover chili and it makes a hearty, tasty breakfast. Don't leave out the cumin. That adds a smokey flavor that works really great in this omelette.

Here it is: the deep-fried cheesecake-stuffed strawberry recipe, originally posted at Fia’s Maine Kitchen! These were absolutely everything I hoped they’d be – the cream cheese was gooey and melty but not hot, the berry was warm and juicy, that ripe sweetness brought out by the heat, and the batter…
