.....but I dare say that I whimpered when I took a chomp out of the first
full sized Jalapeno from my garden last night. Yike-a-moondo, that baby
had some *serious* heat. My lips and mouth burned for quite sometime.
That was with the first bite, nowhere near the seeds or membrane!
Seems kinda early for me to have peppers on, and that the 3 inch green one
that I ate last night had so much heat but if it's any indication of what's
to come from the rest, I look forward to a great crop! I'm scared of the
habs! Now, if those dern maters would ripen up soon........
