Last week, I ate my first anaheim pepper. I pulled it from the plant and bit right into it. Fresh. Full of water. Clean. Delicious. When I reached closer to the stem, where more of the seeds were, it became a bit spicier. It was really good though.
Today, I pulled 6 anaheim peppers and 3 jalepenos off when I got home from work. I ate them all, right there, in my back yard. The jalepenos had some bite to them, but the freshness and (all I can think to call it is) water balanced it. Really cool... Actually, really hot!
My peach tree is out of fruit. The squirrels seem to have enjoyed them much more than I. I would guess that I had a total of 20 or 30 peaches myself, many 5 or 6 at a time. The squirrels upset me a bit though. They'd come down, take one or two bites, drop it on the ground, then tear into another one. I don't mind the animals eating, but that's just wasteful and someone should speak with their parents.
It's getting hot here. It's not July/August hot, but it's close. I think we hit 97 today, so I've had to water my plants more. My black-eyed susan vine needs different soil. I have to water her more than the others, as she gets very crispy in a hurry. Full sun my ass!
Cheers.
