    I found it interesting that we have the same name….I did not think it was common. I was born in 1948 and noticed that date on your website.

    I have also tried without success to make chili rellenos. They are so prolific in the garden. Enjoyed your article. Can you provide a recipe for stuffing the chili rellenos? Thanks
