I stopped at 5 Brothers Hamburgers in Dona Ana for a Chile Cheeseburger 
yesterday and overheard a chile conversation. They were taling about 
Scoville Units and the article in the Las Cruces Sun Times yesterday. 

One of the people had some chiles which he was offering to people. I went 
over, took a look, and said "That looks like a Peter Pepper." He said, 
you're right, have a bite." 

I took a chunk, chewed and swallowed it, amazing them all. It was green, and 
not yet tasty, but it had some heat. Spent the next half hour trying to 
devour my Chile Cheesburger and talk chiles. Turns out the guy with the 
Peter Peppers only lives a couple of miles south. They're all retired from 
NASA or White Sands Missle Range. 

Chile roasting started today at Joe Lujans Farm about 3 miles south. Looks 
like a good crop this year.
