Hi Sandy - Looks like all is well and working. Thanks for the feedback! To answer, I like all levels of heat. As a recreational grower, I even grow bell peppers and have been known to devour pimientos de padron. I just love chiles and chile-like fruit. However, let me relate the following, which may be all the evidence required to categorize me. Before planting time this year, I decided to try Cross Country Nursery, since they have so many varieties. You have to order plants in units of twelve, eighteen, etc. After I hurredly ordered via their web pages (with all the excitement of a kid in a toy store), and printed out the order, I discovered that I had two tomatoes, four bell peppers, a jalapeno, a serrano, a Thai and nine different types of Habanero. Busted. I would love to talk moderation however, since I am the only family member who likes it hot. I do the cooking and need to learn to respect the wishes of my wife and kids. Oh, by the way, I usually have to do all the dishes as well, because everyone has been burned by still-unwashed utensils. John S.

Now you can post long and often. My main question: as a new poster and perhaps a new member, are you a fire eater or of the moderate persuasion? SandyO CH #1146, always looking for new recruits!
