December 7th - another side trip.

     One may well ask what does the date December 7th have to do with anything.
It depends on the year appended to the end of the day and month. If 1941 it was a day that will live in infamy but if 2011 it was just another day on the calendar except for this "historical" aspect; it was the date when the last of the peppers were harvested from the vegetable garden.
     We managed to get a reasonable good crop of Anaheim, Pamiento, Red and Yellow Bell peppers. A few days later we had a light frost and the plants died rather quickly. The only thing left out there now is the cauliflower, broccoli, parsley and the rosemary, the oregano will survive quite well because it is in a moveable container and can be moved indoors when needed.
      Below are a few photos of the last crop.
Red Bell Peppers on the left and Yellow in the right.

The quite tasty Pamiento peppers.

The very tasty Anaheims.
      More stuff on the veggie garden will follow in the spring when we start planting again.
      May all of you have a Blessed Christmas and a Most Happy New Year.
