A little piece of heaven………yes, I said heaven! When I crave a piece of Godiva chocolate
cheese cake, Bulldog Man knows not to come home with any old cheese cake (no I’m
not pregnant).
See ladies, I have my hubby trained well. This evening, Bulldog Man came home with a piece
of Godiva chocolate cheese cake. Evidence

I even shared half of the cheese cake with my
darling husband, Bulldog Man.

Speaking of chocolate, I planted Sweet Chocolate
Peppers. The plants started producing peppers;
I was waiting for them to change colors from green to chocolate. The past two days, the peppers started
changing colors. Soon I’ll be able to
harvest them. I can’t wait to try them
to see how sweet they taste.

This year was the first year I planted Albino
Peppers. I’ve noticed the peppers grow
upside down on the plant. Is that
normal? Has anyone else grown these types
of peppers?
*****
Here’s another shot of my green beans, they have
taken off like crazy, I truly hope I’m able to harvest beans off of these vines
before the cold rolls in here in Oklahoma.

The peas I planted are now tall enough to start attaching
to the fence trellis. I can see
something has already started to munch on the seedlings. Out came my handy homemade bug spray to take
care of the problem (water, alcohol, and Dawn soap).
This Friday, I picked up a few silver coins to put
away. The price had decreased and I
thought why not……
The peppers I have that look and grow exactly like your albino ones were called hungarian peppers when I bought it at a local master gardener sale.
ReplyDeleteAnd one bite would be all I would want from that cheesecake... too rich for my taste buds.
PP,
DeleteHungarian, interesting. I'll have to research yours and see if mine are the same.
I only had 3 bites, and gave up.
Where do you get your silver? I've thought of doing that as well. Do you just go to a coin store? I guess you just pay based on silver and not "collectibility"?
ReplyDeleteThough I'd trade some silver for that cheesecake myself, ha.
1st Man,
DeleteReputable gold and silver dealer is where we go. Depended on spot price (what gold and silver are exchanging for that day, plus premium, plus availability) will determine what we purchase that day.
We try to buy mostly 90 percent coin, sterling silver, or solid silver. We only purchase 40 percent coin in good condition.
The cheesecake was a treat, we very seldom get it. When we do, hubby and I split the piece.
Yum on the cheesecake! One of my faves too! I'm not a huge pepper fan, so I can offer no advice on them. They are interesting and I'll be waiting to hear what you think of them.
ReplyDeleteIzzy,
DeleteYes cheesecake is a good thing, we spoil ourselves every once in a blue moon :-)
As soon as we harvest them I'll make a post to let you know about the peppers.
Your garden is really pretty. I'd be ashamed to show mine; overgrown! Have to agree with you on chocolate. And cheesecake. My fav is the Chocolate Cheesecake from Atchafalaya River Cafe in Houston.
ReplyDeleteLeigh,
DeleteThank you, I try to plant some pretty flowers mixed in with the vegetables. Don't be ashamed to show yours, be proud. You've worked hard to get your garden to produce a wonderful harvest.
The next time I'm in Houston, I'm going to have to check this place out :-)
Sadly ladies, it is closed. :-(
DeleteI must say they did have great food (cheesecake included).
Oh No!!!! I Won't have an opportunity to get to try their cheesecake :-(
DeleteI have always said that chocolate is nature's perfect food. LOL
ReplyDeleteNice silver, always worth having.
Jane,
DeleteGirl, you are so correct on chocolate!!
Indeed silver and or gold is worth having.
You lost me at the cake. I did see the beautiful peppers as I wiped drool off my screen.
ReplyDeleteGail,
DeleteSorry lol.......it was real rich, could only eat a couple of bites.
Sandy, I spotted those chocolate peppers and just knew I was gonna have to see if you wanted to trade some Sweet Yellow Bell seed for some of those.
ReplyDeleteThat albino pepper is cool! And yes, lot's of peppers grow up like that.
Now back to drooling over that cheesecake and sipping coffee.
Ya'll take care ((Hugs))
Sci
SCI,
DeleteSent some to you my friend.
WOW! i love the look of your Albino Peppers. where did you get the seeds? I have never seen them before but they are amazing!
