I've never had Pompano, but I hear it's a crab/shrimp eating fish so it must be pretty tasty!

Not a problem for me... I like 'em all! Salmon, mackerel, herring, bluefish...

[romy6]

Just wanted to say thanks everyone that have kept me supplied with fresh chili's over the last month while my plants struggled.I am overwhlemed with the generosity on this website and I hope to begin returning some much needed chili love over the next few months.


Well it hasn't rained in almost a week and my plants are starting to green up and the leaves ate flattening out. Even starting to get pods on some that have been very upset.Here is a small harvest from today. It is about time. Many more to come in the next month I hope.

And parting shot of me and JJ at the Gator game. We had a great time reguardless of how are team played

Hope everyone had a great labor day weekend

Good to see things are turning around for you.

Glad your plants are perking up Jamie. I got to watch your boys play and they definitely have a few kinks to work out. But look on the bright side, you could be a Kentucky fan My boys stunk it up pretty good too and got a big fat "L" to show for it.

Hi Jamie
I came home for lunch and decided to tear into the brainstrain pod you sent. Cut into it and saved the seeds, then chopped it up and put it into a corned beef sandwich and ate it. I can see why Shane said the flavor reminded him of dish soap. After 3 bites of the sandwich I started to feel the burn coming on, and it reached a crescendo shortly after finishing the sandwich. The waterworks turned on about that time, and I had my nose running a stream and then started sweating. It took half a 25 oz can of Foster's Ale to put out the fire. You did say that it was a little 'un and shouldn't hurt too bad... I guess it didn't, but I think I'll use any future Brainstrains for powder. Thanks for the education!

 

[romy6]

Thank you Jeff. It has been a long hot and nasty summer for all

Brian my man. Thanks for making me feel better. See ya in two weeks

So much for working you way up the ladder Rickster. Went straight for the pain. I have heard many people say they taste like dish soap But I never eat them fresh.Supe strong chinese falvor for sure. Cooked up with some onions and garlic and I like em. But powder is the way to go. Mixed with some annumms or baccs. Either way thank you for allowing me to edumicate ya Still working on my education

Ahh........college football. There's nothing like a mornings pick before tail-gating. We did the same here for the Iowa game....which was played at Soldier Field in Chicago. A "Brain St"...Pico with some local made fresh tortilla chips.
Jamie, I'm sure you had a great time, its fun seeing the kids all decked out in colors...

Mea Culpa Shane... Guess I misremembered it. Not trying to slander your reviews.

 

[HopsNBarley]

Not a bad pull on the peppers at all there Jamie.
Glad you and the youngun had a good time at the game!

You're not so far away that he can't run to where you live and ambush you. Wise move to offer a public apology.
