Today is D's birthday - she turned 8 :). We have a lot of family around, so spent most of the day outside, and really not feeling like writing too much right now.
In any case, the first thing that came to mind is the simplest thing for me to post :). This chilly that has started appearing on my plant that I originally thought to be scotch bonnet, but now seems to be a kandhari variety or related. Whatever it is, it's lovely :)

| The theories have been white gandhari or "ari milagu" |

| Yes I don't know what I'll do with all of them :) |
Till tomorrow and the next prompt then :)
Happy birthday to D!! Big girl :) wow, you have some dedication man. I am sure there must be so many guests around and yet you managed a post. Hats off. Get a good nights sleep.
ReplyDeleteNot that many guests Simran, mostly family - mine and hubby's. Thank you though :) and I will pass on the wishes to the big girl!
DeleteHappy birthday to your darling daughter Aparna! And your chillies look good. I seriously need atleast a crash course on gardening. Kudos to all the effort that goes in.
ReplyDeleteThank you Swathika, will pass on the wishes :). Let me know anytime you want to start off on even a couple of pots, and we'll have fun with it!
DeleteOh wow... I would love to get a few seeds if this is a kandari :)
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling the original plant may have been a hybrid of some sort Aathira, so no clue what may come out of the seeds of this one :). You can definitely have some seeds if you want to give it a try though!

ReplyDeleteTulika, the spice quotient in our household is seriously low! Don't ask me why I am growing these in the first place :).
DeleteGeminis both! Wow, we must have a discussion. I have a tough time with just one, though she's toned down a bit now compared to when she was younger. I actually bought a book about "spirited" children at a time when I couldn't cope.
Geminis are the sweetest people! Aren't they? ;) I am one too :p
DeleteSimz, from what I know of D - sweet, affectionate and sometimes maddening ;)
DeleteI like the look of the fresh chilies !!
ReplyDeletesend some to me :D
Thank you :) I might end up doing that if I can't figure out what to do with them.
DeleteHappy Birthday to the litte one! You seem to have a lovely little collection of plants
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Sirisha :)
Deleteoh..late here..happy birthday to dear D..Geminis are mercurial, is it? I thought they were also cool people..I know two Geminis..very interesting and intelligent people :-)

DeleteHappy Birthday to little D. May she be grow spicier and sweeter as she grows - as the rhyme goes:
