Filling up.

Little Lion inspecting the garden.

Garden.  Stress and relaxation.

Cayenne peppers.

Over 400 lemon drop peppers from 4 plants.  Insanity.

Pulling up the last of the herbs.

Lemon drop peppers.  Looks like it’s going to be a late fall pepper harvest.

…and sriracha season is almost here.

Sunday evening harvest.

This year’s piri piri concoction is made with banana peppers and pepperoncinis. 

Recipe:

1. Char 15 medium-sized hot peppers.
   
2. Blend with 1 head of garlic, the juice of 1 lemon, 1 cup white vinegar, salt to taste, 1 onion, and 3 tbs olive oil.
   
3. Simmer for 1 hour in a medium sized pot with the lid on.
   
4. Store in fridge or freezer.

Pepperoncinis!

Peppers are my favourite.

(Peperoncino, lemon drop, cayenne, that chilli)

First harvest of the season!  Five giant banana peppers.

We reorganized the freezer and found an alarming amount of hot sauce.

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.

Peppers.

Early June Garden Update:  I’ll enjoy the neatness while it lasts.

Mid-May Garden Update:  This weekend was berserk, but I did manage to sneak in a couple hours of gardening time.  The plants are planted and the summer officially begins.

This is ridiculous (but I will make it work).

Tomatoes (San Marzano, Rutgers, Red Cherry, Black Cherry, and Roma) and peppers (Lemon Drop, Moruga Scorpion, Cayenne, and Orange Thai) are on the roster for this year.
