Feel like I can smell the chilies roasting from your description! Stew sounds delicious!

Sounds delish, I will try it for sure. I lived in Ireland 2015-2018, in Wexford...love their food.

You just missed me, then! We left in 2015. I actually never went to Wexford, but my in-laws vacation there a lot!

Feb 9, 2015 to Feb 9, 2018. Where did you live? We traveled all over the island while we lived there. Loved it.

I lived in Dublin for a year for my master’s and spent a month in Wicklow with my husband’s family. In 2013 I also studied abroad in Cork for six months (my favorite place in Ireland). Can’t wait to take the little one back for a visit 🙂

So much great information! Thank you! Made me remember the green chile hamburgers (at McDonald’s even!) in Taos

Yum. I have not had a green chili hamburger yet! I added a little more to the story. :-) I went too and it was a lot of fun. They had San Marzano tomatoes and giant pumpkins!

Soul food. Been making green chilly stew (my grandma's rescipe) all along. I'll make a way too big pot and eat it three meals a day till it's gone.
