Hey all, First thing - gotta love it when the list comes alive. Gourmet
salsa boy - thanks for the spark! (and I'll drop you a note with my
address later for the free salsa *g*)
Second - I have germination starting for this years peppers! Most are a
bit slow, but the seeds I dried out of a scotch bonnet from the grocery are
going gangbusters, and some of the purples that Blue so graciously sent me
from Hawaii (thank you again!) are up. The packaged seeds are slower, but
the seeds are two years old - only one serrano peeking its head up so far.
Okay so maybe my life it scary sometimes, but I am way psyched to watch my
garden forming (in my den, but forming nonetheless). The tomatoes,
tomatillos and basil have already been transplanted once! yay....
One question - do peppers lose some of their heat after being frozen? I
made a blend out of the remaining peppers in my freezer (toaster over at
200F for a day to dry them then into the coffee mill). The taste is great,
but for the amount of habs its not that crazy hot. Just wondering.
off to mist the seedlings,
Suzanne
