Harvesting chiles (Inula Day, 24th of Heat, Year 226)

I picked half a pound of buena mulata chiles today, which will go into my batch of salsa morada.

I also picked a few fish peppers, to make peach salsa with, and cut back the tomatillo, which are of course enormous and shading out the other plants. If they'd just droop in the other direction, everything would be fine, but tomatillos never cooperate.

My anaheim greens seem to have enough on them to make chile verde at least once. I'm not too sure about the pasilla, but I can get that dry if I really want to tackle mole negro this year. The shishito peppers are going great, so I foresee a lot of dishes of dried anchovies and eomuk in my future.

I'm supposed to go to Synetic Theater's Wizard of Oz tonight, and I just might melt before I get there, given how hot it is and how badly the Metro is messed up right now...
