Thursday, Nov. 04, 2004 - 8:13 p.m. Came home from work tonight, and decided to make chicken breast meat into stovetop chicken fajitas. Simple to make- just bake boneless chicken breasts, seasoned with fajita dry mix, fresh lime and lemon juice, and Sunny D� (usually orange juice, but none was thawed at the time). Bake at 375� for 45 minutes (the meat was frozen). Let cool, pull apart by hand, and return to the stovetop in a saucepan with more of the seasoning and juice. Very easy, and tastes pretty good too. Anyway� I also roasted 4 nice poblano peppers in the broiler before I cooked the chicken. Where did they come from? They were still growing on my sad looking pepper plants in the backyard garden. I also picked 3 ripe yellow tomatoes (�Orange Husky� is the variety, I think) from one of the few tomato plants that I haven�t already pulled and recycled for the year. And� I picked about 20 �Viva Paste� Roma paste-type tomatoes, all still green (to be either breaded and deep fried, or saved to ripen inside for Thanksgiving dinner). Add to that the 7 green and red bell peppers also gathered (�Gypsy� and �California Wonder�), and you have a pretty nice harvest basket for one day. One day in September, that is. Today is November 4. We had a killing frost at my work garden back in mid-September. That one missed my home garden. Heat island effect, I�m sure. We have had a couple of light frosts at work since that date, but it hasn�t fallen below 32� here at Casa Roadiepig since late April, almost 7 months ago! The only forecasted low below 32� in the 7 day outlook is tonight. And that is as low as it is supposed to get. There should still be enough residual heat from the day�s heating to protect my remaining plants so they live another day. But I picked the green tomatoes , just in case there isn�t�.
