Hello from Detroit!

Just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Michelle, wife to Ray, ma to 4 wonderful kids Amber-17, Anthony-6, Bryant-4 and Carisma-2. I have always had a taste for all things hot and spicy. When we had a garden when I was young, my mom grew chile tepins among other things and I would eat them whole--even she wouldn't eat them. This is my second year with my garden and next year I definitely need more hot peppers and more hotter varieties. At least this year, my garden is producing much better--I only got 1 habanero last year and it wasn't even fully ripe. I only have habanero, cayenne, jalapeno and ancho chiles, but they are all producing well. Also growing tons of tomatoes since I love home grown tomatoes and I even got a bunch of surprise cherry tomato plants that sprouted up from last years plant, so I will be drowning in some peppers and tomatoes!!

Next year, I will definitely be adding some super hots to my garden. Got some fresh bhut's at the farmers market last year and I ended up eating it mixed in a single size serving of rice--boy did it clear out my sinuses but I liked it. Love the endorphin rush! :P

Besides growing my own foods, I enjoy dehydrating, canning and freezing my garden bounty. My other main hobby is sewing, which I sew clothing, accessories, diapers and more for my friends and family and occasionally online.

My youngest actually is the only one besides me who eats spicy foods too. She always sneaks bites of my food which is usually loaded with a dried pepper blend of bhuts, habaneros, jalapenos, cayenne and more. Its some potent stuff, but she's just like her mama, lol.
