Back to hobbies ... and Life

Finally got a decent photo of our black pug. He's a beut! He has to think about things alot before dealing with them. He has to sniff and sniff and sniff on a spot and think about what it all means. While the boston terrier would just take a quick sniff and head out looking for things to eat or things to chase. The collar he wears has lots of spikes on it ... just to keep Sheba from chewing on it or using it to pull him around.

Jalapeño Peppers

What color are Jalapeño Peppers when they are ripe?

What color are Green Peppers when they are ripe?

If you let them sit out in the garden long enough ... they aren't green

The ones pictured here are in the process of still ripening ...

When you let jalapenos turn red you then call them chipotle peppers.

I thought they were called chipotle ... after they are roasted??
Wikipedia says it is after they are smoked and dehydrated.
The Nahuatl word chilpoctli means "smoked chile".
