Funny things we say.
Awhile back I saw a quote that I found to be so very true. It read “Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.” ~Rose Franken. Well, my husband and I must be real lovers, because we are about the silliest people I know! Here is a recent conversation that I found funny.
We were eating dinner and this Kia commercial came on:
To which my husband replied “they are going after a demographic that really hasn’t been targeted before.”
Me: “People who own hamsters?”
Him: “Evil robot owners.”
What about you and your beloved? What funny things do you say to each other?
Spooky peppers!
My husband has an extreme love of all things hot and spicy, so of course he was bound to get some “ghost chili pepper” seeds in his Christmas stocking last year. They came in a little soda can that looked like this:
So, when the weather warmed up a bit we started them in our windowsill. This was in May, and to say that they grow slowly would be a bit of an understatement! They finally reached a size where I felt like I could transplant them. Here they are in their new home, hopefully one in which they will be very happy and grow some very spooky peppers!
Apparently this is the hottest chili pepper in the world, with Guinness Book of World Records confirming it with an official (SHU) of 1,001,304 SHU, (SHU- Scoville Heat Rating, is the unit of measure used to indicate the hotness of a chili pepper.). This means it is even hotter than a Habanero which are rated 100,000–350,000 on the Scoville scale. Have you had a Habanero? They are pretty darn hot if you ask me.
I’m very scared to try a ghost pepper, but I can’t wait to see my husband give it a go! Send happy growing vibes our way please.
What about you? Do you like it hot and spicy? What is the hottest pepper you have eaten?
