Day two hundred and twenty-five: Yep, it’s Saturday, which means fruit and vegetable shopping at the Rittenhouse Square farmer’s market. Last week I bought a 50 cent jalapeño pepper — like the green one here — and every day I chopped up a slice or two of it to heat my salads a bit. This week I added two more tiny peppers for 25 cents each. I don’t remember exactly what varieties they are, but the farmer told me the red one on the left is a “pretty rare” Pennsylvania Dutch pepper. All three are “moderately hot.” I’m looking forward to sampling my one dollar selection of hot peppers this week, but perhaps at a rate of a couple pennies-worth at a time!
