The ONE thing I can be good at...

Meet my hot peppers...



















Aren't they cute!

I pick them and they make me happy. They have a beautiful color.
I do not like eating them because I can't handle spice, but I cook them up for my husband.

Last night I told him, "look, I grew peppers for you!"
He tasted a piece and went, "wow, that has some good kick to it".

Yay! I grew hot peppers for you! Look at how wonderful I am! I did it! I win!

Or so that's how I felt until he smiles and asks if I know how peppers become hotter?
"Ummmm...leave them on the plant longer...? [Pretty sure I read that somewhere]
And....water them...?"
Actually, he's read that NOT watering them as frequently helps make the pepper spicier.

But..but...but...















...I was so proud of myself!

Oh well; at least there is ONE thing my ineptitude can help with. I can dehydrate peppers into spiciness...go me!
