THE LITTLE PEPPER THAT DID


I did an entry at the end of June about the pepper plant that lost it "head" after we put it in the trunk for the ride home.
Not only did that baby grow it's outdone the other two plants. Of course it had to come from behind. It not only set more peppers than the plants that had a head start, but I've had to pick these while they're still green (they'll be great in soup or relish) because they were literally pulling the plant over. I picked one yesterday and got these this morning.
It's pick 'em green or lose 'em when the plant goes belly up from the weight of the fruit. BTW the larges one is about six inches long.

Peppers are now prepped, thinly sliced, frozen, bagged and ready for anything.
