    for-sale Web Business for sale

    A while back I set about building a website to offer a selling platform for the chile community, aiming for an 'Etsy' type system. The idea came from being a chile fanatic for years, starting my own (small) sauce biz, being a member on a couple forums including this one, and trading with a few...

    Resistance Building, Burn Types, Brain Exploding, then death...it's all covered.

    I wanted to share a recent experience relating to 'heat conditioning' and provide some interesting research on this and other related subjects. So here goes, a little necessary background first - I'm a hot and spicy guy, have been for many years. But until recently I haven't really stretched...

    labels Labeling Just for Fun - how many do it?

    What Books are You Reading Right Now?

    Always looking for recommendations on new and/or interesting books. For rock fans I'd highly recommend Neil Peart's 'Ghost Rider' - the Rush drummer writes about dealing with personal loss by escaping the public eye and touring around the USA on his BMW motorcycle. I'm just finishing up 'The...

    Does it get any sexier than this?

    Maybe, but I can't think how :eek: This is my first experience with T-scorps, thanks to Justaguy for making my weekend!! The yellow Fatalii has an interesting flavor. As other folks have noted it's a citrus base, but there's another flavor component to it that I can't quite put a label on...

    condiment Habanero Mustard from Hell

    Ok, I'll try to keep this brief and on point :) I live in Sausage County WI, population 263. My old lady was born and raised in Austria, thus I found myself eating wurst with mustard, potato salad, dumplings and other European staples from a very young age. I love mustard and I love spice, so...

    overwintering Winter coming to WI - will the little guys make it?

    Well, I hate to say it but Winter is practically upon us here in northern Wisconsin. Two frost warnings have (thankfully) passed us by in the last week, but it's just a matter of another week or so before things will really cool down. And with the Bay of Green Bay a mile to the West, and Lake...

    Roozer's Stash -slow but steady start to growing!

    Hey folks, Thought I'd pop some pics up showing the kinda slow progress of my little growing projects. I have around 20 private acres but much of it has established trees and the options for growing peppers are somewhat limited, due to the extensive shade. Last year I cleared a couple of 12x12...

    Nasty brown "fungus" on Leaves....ideas?

    Hey folks, So my Kung Pao plant, which has quite a few pods, maybe 2/3 weeks away from being ripe, has developed a nasty little discoloration on some of its leaves. Other leaves are starting to head the same way. I have several other Kung Pao which look healthy, at the moment. Can anyone...

    Should I repot these or just let them grow?

    Hi, just a quick newbie grower question. I have several yellow hab plants growing in pots, one of which is growing two plants. I must have carelessly dropped in two seeds. The two plants are very close together and I'm sure the roots are very intertwined at this point, they probably started out...

    hot-sauce Hot Sauce of the week - "Hellacious Hot Sauce"

    Damn it this stuff is good. It's been sitting on my desk unopened for about a week and I finally gave it a whirl about 15 minutes ago.....and my mouth is still burning!! This is a really good blend of chipotle and habanero mash. I'm not always a fan of chipotle if there's too much smokiness...

    What's wrong with this picture....?

    There's been a family of chipmunks living on/in the lawn near my deck for the past year and a half. The last time I mowed the lawn, in June, I nearly broke my neck by falling into the big hole they've burrowed in the bloody lawn. 'Course these little f#$%ers are all cuddly and cute, so one can't...
