I ate my first ever fresh jalapeno pepper last night, it was 2" long and 1/2" thick grown on a less than foot tall plant. It was excellent, now hoping that plant really takes off with the fruit gone.

Wow! If I could only get my pepper plants to grow that large.

Looking good, Harley!

Whenever you visit my grave,

say to yourselves with regret

but also with happiness in your hearts

at the remembrance of my long happy life with you:


"Here lies one who loved us and whom we loved."


No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you,

and not all the power of death

can keep my spirit

from wagging a grateful tail.

I wish I knew why they were doing so well! Have over 35 banana peppers on the one plant!
