The Merciless Pepper of Quetzalacatenango
In an effort to alleviate the congestion in my head, I thought it would be helpful to look to my mini-farm for some home remedy in the form of Cayenne Peppers.
Horseradish and wasabi have always done well when it comes to helping clear my sinuses, so I thought I’d chomp down on one of my homegrown peppers to get things flowing.
Here’s what I discovered:
- I can successfully grow something delicious and useful.
- The hypothesis worked beautifully (though only temporarily) and perhaps too well.
Conclusion: these peppers are super hot, but also super useful.
I’m about to put some homegrown stevia in a cup of tea and see how that goes. I’ll let you know.

In other news:
- Dayquil, hot & sour soup, and robotussin will make you immortal, apparently.
- My cat loves cat nip. How ordinary of him.
- Tomatoes!
