[CH] Time for my Annual Bath

Kids,

This entire week has been warm and wet here in central Ohio.  
I've taken the opportunity to put my peppers out on the patio 
for their mid-winter bath.  With temperatures ranging from 
50 - 60F and a gentle rain, this is the time to scrub the 
winter's dust from those miserable, light-starved leaves.

They've been out for two days so far, but how long can I keep 
this up?  Surely there will be a backlash, and the temperature 
will be as abnormaly cold as it is now abnormally warm.

Well, at least the days are getting longer and the worst is past.
Soon, my darlings, you will wave your leaves in the warm spring
breezes again.

Meanwhile, I'll just snip a serrano for tonight's arroz con pollo...
