It does seem healthier - still, sometimes I miss the variety. We'd grow our own but since we're too disorganized to even get to La Rhue on time (I am so sorry! At least we got to see you in the parking lot) they probably wouldn't make it...amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08330763519601938989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866784164489453011.post-31949819044474200182009-01-17T18:20:00.000-08:002009-01-17T18:20:00.000-08:00I always get confused when Americans talk about pe...I always get confused when Americans talk about peppers. I think they mean Chillies. I love both, btw. <BR/><BR/>To me, the delicious things in your photo are known as Capsicums. I've got about six varieties growing in my garden at present, as well as chillies. <BR/><BR/>I've never had luck growing either of them in our temperate winters, so it will be interesting to see how you go with the Green house.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15809862683335434575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4866784164489453011.post-43826024226830386562009-01-17T07:47:00.000-08:002009-01-17T07:47:00.000-08:00I think we are made to always feel somewhat dissat...I think we are made to always feel somewhat dissatisfied with where we are.

So, it may come in handy for making the transition with a modicum of cravings.<BR/><BR/>I agree with softinthehead. Michael Pollan is lobbying the new commander in chief to pay attention to the carbon footprint of running chilis out of season.<BR/><BR/>Who knows, maybe the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave will start eating vegetables "in season" and keeping Victory gardens instead of trophy spas.<BR/><BR/>Welcome back to your new life in this new year.

We have just been spoilt living in North America. Good luck with the potager - keep us posted.softintheheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01365562754859033869noreply@blogger.com
