Is this a poetic answer or not! It's just that little.... like peppers do to
you too.
Doug I always enjoy your notes (and the recipes even more) did you made this
up yourself of did you quote?.
And I agree, don't pick them to soon, or leave a few until full ripen so you
know why you should be patient or not if you like them green better.

I misquoted that, and she is
probably right! WAIT, WAIT, WAIT!!!! Until they is at least a
little ripe! Cheers, Doug in BC
