[CH] a whirlwind of possibilities

Well, we had a freeze overnight, so this must be it for the peppers in my 
gardens.  Now I have a mix of pod varieties and states of ripeness.  And 
with other things on hand, there is a cloud of ingredients and 
probabilities, waiting to precipatate products in my kitchen.

I have a lot of orange habs.  I just got a 2-for-1 deal on onions.  I have 
carrots.  I also have ginger that needs to be pulled out of the garden.  I 
have oranges.  I have green baking apples.  And today I'm going to a pumpkin 
farm - I am thinking of making a pie filling with just a light hint of 
orange hab, that might make some kind of appearance at the hotluck in 
Madison next April.

I also have a lot of red super chiles, some of which I will save for seed.  
There are a lot of green serranos, and some red ones.  There should be some 
fat ripe jalapenos in the patch at my parents' house.  Then I have unripe 
pods of many types.

I think this will probably be another time when I run the food processor out 
on the patio table, along with the big Coleman camping stove.  *cracks 
knuckles* and I have an unopened box of 8-oz canning jjars...
