And it's also fun to play with adding some spicy peppers to the mix. And I love to make sweet pepper flakes with the thin fleshed peppers like Sigaretta Dolce or Jimmy Nardello. I'm just not all that fond of blasting my taste buds with hot pepper flakes anymore, it really interferes with my favorite wines,Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-36496941550506007852012-12-30T07:44:53.857-08:002012-12-30T07:44:53.857-08:00A lot of people throw away the stems and leaf-midr...A lot of people throw away the stems and leaf-midribs of cabbages and other brassicas, because they perceive them to be tough. I think actually they are often the best bit of the plant - especially if we're talking about broccoli!<br />BTW I have only just seen your 17 Dec blogpost, and now I have a very severe case of Pepper-Envy. I'm planning to grow some Sweet Peppers next year, with Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-71307417535572296072012-12-29T14:59:47.760-08:002012-12-29T14:59:47.760-08:00Tyra, I'm so happy the seeds got to you.

I love my dial thermometer for a quick glance at the temperature when I'm in the garden, but I have a basic weather station that I use more often for checking the temperature - but mine doesn't record anything but the highs and lows. Hmmm, sounds like something for the birthday wish list!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-24222397841302667752012-12-24T15:44:33.742-08:002012-12-24T15:44:33.742-08:00It is a really good variety - tasty and productive...It is a really good variety - tasty and productive.

I like my weather center as it records everything, but the little gray box that sits on my desk is very ugly.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-23370560223506452102012-12-24T10:36:25.964-08:002012-12-24T10:36:25.964-08:00The tronchuda cabbage is beautiful.

The weather here has been wet and cold and we may even get some snow for Christmas morning - won't last long but it is nice all the same. kitsapFGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06120640838501186514noreply@blogger.com
