'Heads,

The publisher I work for is bringing out a gardening book this spring. I
needed a way to set this book off from every other publisher's book when
submitting it to bookstores.

So, I came up with the idea of including a packet o'seeds.  My first
choice was for forget-me-nots (get it??? <g>), but you EVER try and find
seeds in December in the northwest US?  HA!

I was lucky to hit a nursery that had 19 packets o'Shepherd's seeds 80%
off, and of course I scarfed up on them.

I get home, get my glasses on and start looking at the seeds.  And what
do I find???

THREE of the packets are for Chile Pepper 'Francisca' "Largest, hottest
orange habanero."

I'm on the horns o'a dilemma!  Do I use the packets as originally
intended - work?  Or do I keep them - play???

Figured out that since I paid for them with my own money - even tho my
intent was for bidness - and I've not yet turned in an expense
report...  I'm going to keep one packet for me and deduct that from the
amount on the receipt!  Win/win!
