I always wanted a Mustang from the '60's!

Came close: '60's Fairlane 500, '60's Ranchero, '60's T-Bird . . . not even a car nut :).

I have apparently made an erroneous prediction of frost by Wednesday. Instead of a sprinkle of rain followed by a severe cool-down, we are now supposed to have a week of clouds and rain. I'd thought that it would be best to grab most of the peppers but it looks like they've got another week.

As many as possible will be used fresh. I'm not at all averse to using a bell or whatever in a stir-fry but have my Fushimi Sweets (which have just a little bit of heat again this year). Those skinny little peppers are best in stir-fry. The larger peppers are wonderful in casseroles of one sort or another but I imagine that the freezer will get several bags of chopped and blanched sweet peppers.

The Yummies are such cute little bite-sized things, I hope to enjoy most of them without resorting to that :p.
