Dehydrated Peppers

My husband's square foot test garden was very successful this year.

He planted a pepper garden with varieties such as bell peppers,

 tabascos, jalapenos, moles, banannas, and poblanos and thai dragons.

   They took off like a rocket and most are just as hot too!

He has been harvesting and pickling or dehydrating them

 for future use.  Next in the dehydrator will be the recently

picked tomatoes sliced into wagon wheel shape.  Tom

loves how concentrated the tomato flavor becomes, almost

sweet.  He's been known to take a few to work for a mid-day meal.

We still have tomatillos to process plus all the rest of the peppers

that are still growing on the vine.  

I came down with a 24-48 hr virus and was sicker than a dog

yesterday, still a bit today but I know I am improving- I felt

like cleaning up the mess of cups and hard candy wrappers that I made 

while laying in my recliner and wishing I could keep something down, 

even water would have been nice.

We just returned from a trip to the gas station.  Where I live that is a combination gas station, grocery, restaurant and minor cleaning and hardware supplies plus

the required live bait.  When I am sick I always want a slush, sometimes

I can keep it down when all else fails.  I came home with my favorite,

blue raspberry!  I can feel the healing already.

I'm still on-and-off with my posts as I have some other

issues to deal with for a bit so pardon the sporadic publications.
