I hope the Hot Luck at Jeff's went well this weekend. Sorry to have missed
it. I had to take my father to O'Hare for his flight. I live in SW Wisconsin
so we decided to come back thru Lake Geneva and Delavan. Coming thru Delavan
we noticed a small Mexican Restaurant called Hernadez's. Having lived in
Tucson, Az for many years before moving to WI I love and appreciate good
Mexican food but it's tough to find around where I live. We were pleasantly
surprised. The food was great and the salsas were and guacamole was fresh.
Even better there was a small store attached where they sold Mexican food
stuffs and liquor, including chipotles, canned and bagged, salsas, dried
chiles, including Chile de arbols, Morditas, Mexican Oregano, Canela and
more. Needless to say I went home with alot a stuff. My father's flying back
in this Sat. , so my wife and are going down Friday spending the night in
Lake Geneva and making Hernadez's the focal point of our trip. 
	Gareth, I am growing tomatillos for the first time this year and the
one's I have are really spindly too. I am surprised the three plants I have
are doing as well as they are doing with all the wind and rain we've had
lately. Hope your peppers are thriving.
