Okay Danny, pay the man.

Equal parts water and white vinegar. Peppercorns, salt and sugar 
to taste. TASTE that is. Herbs are up to you.
Just put up 4 quarts of spicy vegetables yesterday (bite sized 
pieces of red and green jalapenos, red cherry peppers, green bells, 
cauliflower, carrots, green beans, turnips, cabbage, mushrooms 
and of course garlic). I added a little extra sugar because I LIKE 
sugar. About 30 peppercorns for the whole batch. Blanched the 
veggies in the liquid for about 5 minutes, filled the sterilized jars, 
sealed and processed for 15 minutes.
Now I don't THINK they'll kill me, but I won't know for sure for a 
couple weeks. If my messages stop abruptly following the grand 
opening report.....  Well, I'll die happy.

Takes all kinds to make the world go 'round. Sociopaths, 
schizophrenics, delusionists, fatalists, neurotics, phsychotics and 
the occasional fanatic. And that's just the Chile-Heads!

Now THAT is getting annoying. Attach a good recipe or something 
instead of all that e-mail header crap. Got any good uses for the 
red jalepenos in my freezer and ripening on my plants?

I thought that was the main claim of Miracle Gro. Not that it makes 
the plants bigger necessarily, but the fruits and/or vegetables 
bigger.

It's the bumpy roads that take you to the most interesting 
places......
Hot and happy cooking from the Banana Belt,
