Pour into uncooked pie shell and bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 25 minutes. Let cool before cutting. Note: This pie will look like it is not done after 25 minutes.

Country Stuffed Bell Peppers Oven baked bell peppers stuffed with goodness can be a complete meal. This is one of my most favorite vegetable recipes. Ring the bell on this recipe and they will come running! You could either use green, orange, red or yellow bell peppers for this recipe. During the summer months, I usually will use a variety of colors because they make a colorful dish. Recipe Ingredients: 6 large bell peppers (green, orange, red or yellow) 1 pound ground beef 1 small onion, finely chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 small can sweet com, drained (8 ounce) 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/2 teaspoon thyme 3 cups long-grain cooked rice 2 cups tomato juice shredded cheese Recipe Instmctions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare bell peppers for baking by cutting off the tops and removing the spines and seeds. The peppers need to be softened before baking. Softening of the peppers can be accomplished in one of two ways: 1) Steam the bell pepper on a wire rack above water for 10 to 15 minutes 2) Or cover the bell peppers with water and boil for 3 minutes. After softening process set bell peppers aside. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, stir and cook ground beef until it is browned. Be sure to separate beef into small pieces while stirring. Next add onions and garlic cloves, stir and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in sweet com, salt, pepper, thyme, cooked rice and 1 cup tomato juice. Mix all ingredients well, then stuff mixture into peppers. Place stuffed bell peppers upright into shallow baking dish and add the remaining tomato juice. Cover with aluminum foil and bake stuffed bell peppers at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 35 minutes. Remove foil, add cheese topping and bake an additional 5 to 10 minutes, until cheese melts. Spoon the remaining tomato juice from the baking dish over the stuffed bell peppers and serve hot.

PASSION AND SATISFACTION Go Hand in Hand Nicholas Sparks Dozier's Do^ie Daze Top 20 Real Stories of Heroic Dogs Saving Human Lives Story 9 Little Joe of the New Jersey “Yorkies” Little Joe is not really so little at all. He is average size for his breed and has a hero-sized heart. Little Joe and other dogs like him are called Yorkshire terriers or, "Yorkies" for short, and they usually are kept as pets, as friends or companions, or as show dogs. Show dogs perform for a living, sometimes they compete in beauty pageants and play sports, and sometimes they act in movies and TV commercials. Little Joe was definitely not trained to fend off a 100 pound black bear that had wandered onto owner Deborah Epstein's New Jersey property in Summer, 2003, but he did. Way to go Little Joe!

The General Assembly suspended the fuel tax in March as inflation began raising pump prices above $4 a gallon. Kemp extended that break in May and again on Friday. The state gas tax is around 29 cents per gallon. Kemp also suspended the state sales tax on locomotive fuel, which he said would help fight rising consumer costs. "I am committed to fighting to ease the economic burden hardworking Georgians are facing due to disastrous policies from Washington politicians," Kemp said. Kemp said President Joe Biden’s administration had not done enough to combat inflation and rising fuel prices. In June, Biden called on Congress to suspend the federal gas tax (18 cents per gallon) until the end of September. Biden has also ordered releases of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the nation’s emergency oil stockpile. Georgia’s gas prices are about 50 cents below the national average, according to AAA. On Friday, Kemp also extended an April executive order declaring a state of emergency in Georgia due related to supply chain disruptions. The order prohibits price gouging by gas station operators and relaxes some rules on commercial trucking in Georgia. Kemp extended that executive order until August 13.
