Baby Jalapeno Boom

About two weeks ago our friend Travis stopped by to see all of our landscaping and gardening work. When we took him to see our vegetable garden and showed him the jalapeno plant and he said, "Jalapeno? At this time of year?" Psssht. He didn't know what he was talking about. (Personally, I think that's the case a lot of the time...)

Anyway, since he said that, we've been watching FIVE jalapenos get bigger and bigger on our plant!

This makes the jalapeno one of our more productive plants, right alongside the cucumbers. The difference is that our jalapeno plant is still here and doing great while our cucumber vines have all died off. I expect that our jalapeno plant will end up being one of our more worthwhile purchases, at a whopping $1.50 this past spring.

Let us know if you want one. A few are just about ready to harvest!
