We were without power for a couple days but luckily nobody was hurt, unless you consider Cliff when I handed him a peanut butter & jelly sandwich for dinner. My plants however are squashed from downed trees and limbs. Hopefully the plants will perk up now that we’ve hauled out all the limbs.

Other news – Ate my first red tomato today. Yummy!!! Sorry no pics as I was too in a hurry to taste it.

I’m sure it was the pepper, Satan’s Kiss, that wasn’t included ( i think) so I’ll end up planting them all. Maybe once they start bearing fruit I’ll be able to tell what is what by a pepper line up.

The one year I grow enough pepper plants to share and I don’t have a clue what I am offering. Ughh

It’s raining here and temps are starting to cool down. The dogs weren’t in a hurry to come in so they are now drenched and the kitchen has muddy paw prints stamped across it. The smell of wet dogs should be bottled and used as an interrogation technique.
