Peppers

Big ones, small ones....


Red ones, green ones....


Hot ones, sweet ones.....

Pat had a patient bring him in some yummy homemade salsa and pepper relish. They got to talking and Pat said he would love to have a few habanero peppers to dry and use for cooking. Well, what Pat ended up with was about 30 pounds of peppers, some that we cannot even identify.

There are some habaneros, about 10 pounds of jalapenos, pablano's, thai hot peppers and I don't know what else. It took us 5 hours to string just these up and he didn't even touch the jalapenos and another bag of something. He finally took them back up to the office to give away to patients.

We have these hanging in the garage. My eyes water and my throat gets tingly whenever I go into it. Last night the boys were eating them. Some were sweet, some were hot. There are some that look like green bean and have a similar texture but have a bit of a bite. Morgan especially like the jalapeno's. They tried another that was round and looked much like a tomato. They said that it was sweet, but had a big kick at the end.

Pat just got word that another delivery is scheduled over the weekend!!! I told him to "Just Say NO!" What is a person to do with so many peppers?
