What's in the Garden?

I have some pequin chile plants that give some great little spicy chiles. Perfect for adding to salsa or other sauces. Just always want to remember to wash your hands thoroughly after harvesting. I had a bad experience once.

Wifey has basil and other herbs in pots. Tucson isn't great for a garden. Our soil is not good and the temps here are pretty rough.

Funny story: Last fall, Alina and I are eating some homemade pizza on the back patio on a nice romantic evening. She had put basil leaves on the pizza from her plant. Just as I'm taking a bite of the basil-covered pizza, Hogan nonchalantly walks over to the basil plant, lifts his leg, and gives it a good "watering".

I still give her a hard time about trying to poison me with urine-basil.
