Default Just could not wait...

I was going through my pepper seed collection and I got overly excited today (probably smelled too much of the wonderful aroma of these trinidads and Scotch Bonnets... )...

... so I put a few pepper seeds into a wet paper towel, put them into a plastic container and into the oven where I was proofing dough...

... trying to convince myself that I was doing the right thing and not starting them too early

... they were baccatums and chinenses, so they need longer time...

Anyway, I've done it again - started seeds too early!!!

On top of this, I went to a couple of pepper sites and put 2 orders for 23 additional varieties of peppers. Why? Not sure, as I already had enough in my seed collection for the next few years! Acting irrational again...

Does this ever happen to you?

No it doesn't, but can I invite myself to chili and tacos night at your house?

Scott,

No tacos or chili at our house, it would be either 'adjika' nights or indian curry - my parent-in-law hate these as they find the food to be too hot for them

Oh I hear the same bell ringing, Tania. Curry or adjika sound good to me.

Aha, that makes sense, I have not thought about it!

I think more meditation would be appropriate.

Breathing in - "hot"
Breathing out - "peppers"
Repeat for 10 minutes. Then do the same with "heirloom tomatoes". You'd be amazed how it feels!
