Thanks guys. 

Silent, Each week the corn plants get browner.   Even a good rain is likely too late to help.   I see fewer cattle.  Farmers are getting rid of them - to expensive to feed.  The CRP government ground is now open to haying, which I hope will help.   Food prices will go UP.

LOL!

Well the Habs arent ready yet, (just two kinds this year) but Ive got Jalepenos, Grande Sante fe's (hot) Bulgarian carrots (damn hot) Fish peppers (rare and interesting) Red bells, yellow baby bells, Red poppers, cayennes, tabascos (also not ready yet) Hell I cant even remember them all! Tried some kind of hot lemon pepper this year, they are just maturing so we'll see what they are about......... Sweet banana peppers...... Really, I've lost track! And I cut back this year!

Yeah, I'm a pepperhead.

Nancy, you find the coolest photos.   And what a nice kitty.

Mark, I love fried green tomatoes.   And peppers, I have bells and a fairly hot topedo shaped one.  No cilantro.   Mine failed and the store was out.  Salsa still good.

mmm, fresh salsa. Fresh Cilantro! I didnt mention my large variety of peppers either!

Fried green tomatoes anyone?

Gotta go out to the garden, I'm getting hungry now!

I guess it would be no surprise I tried to sell Keni Lee Burgess on a cigar box nation southern cookbook concept! (He is also a chef!)

Thanks for the fun comments.  Trying to kechup with you.   Mark Bliss that sounds fantastic.   Maybe for supper.  I have leftover taco stuff for lunch including salsa made with red tomatoes and yellow tomatoes.   Linda likes the yellow ones best.
