Saturday Self Challenge
This week's challenge then is to show two things which are different, yet largely the same. For example two forks that don't match, two different types of yellow car, maybe a pair of different coloured socks from a matching set. Collage or a single image is fine. As ever new photos please.
This was one of those ideas that in my mind seemed simple but turned out to be quite difficult to pull off. I decided after taking photos of the ground pepper and the complete peppercorns in separate containers that they would look probably look better in the same one. That was when the trouble started, trying to get them not to mix. In the end I folded a small piece of aluminium foil and placed it across the middle of the wooden bowl. I carefully filled from each side and then just before I was ready to take the pictures I carefully removed the foil barrier. I did end up with a couple of stray peppercorns getting into the ground up side, but I would have caused too much of a mess attempting to remove them. I do hope it’s suitable for the challenge.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
My peppers are finally turning red to match the color on the tomatoes. It has been a bountiful year!

Macro Mondays theme: orange.
Bell pepper. It is a quite small type, like 5cm only. The seed close to the top give an idea of the scale.

I’ve clearly been on a black and white kick, but I know that monochrome images are not nearly as popular on Flickr, so I have to get a color image or so in there as well from time to time. This is all about color. I had to dial back the saturation a little just to make this believable!
Every year I grow hot peppers to make hot sauce with, so I harvest them from the middle of summer until we finally get a cold snap that frosts or freezes the plants. This picking was 4.5 pounds, bringing the year to about 14 pounds so far. It’s been a prolific year. I grow a variety of different peppers each year, so every year the taste is different. This year I am using AJI BENITO, AJI ROJO, COCHITI, SALMON, SILING LABUYO, SUPER CHILI HYBRID, THAI RED, SZECHWAN, and TABASCO peppers. I think this year’s is going to be an especially good sauce, but I won’t know until after everything is harvested and prepared, so I won’t get to taste it for another few weeks at least. At least there will be plenty of it!
What to do on a Saturday afternoon... make pasta again, this time black pepper tagliatelle, rolled by hand and cut using a chitarra pasta cutter. Chitarra means guitar in Italian so imagine a wooden frame with thin wires stretched across it. Once you've rolled your pasta dough really thin, you place it on top of the wires and press down using rolling pin and there you go... tagliatelle done. You can even pluck the wires and play some music if you feel like it.
None left now!
Peppers is enjoying a favorite spot, the ramp to the alpaca barn. He likes to look out over the farm and soak in the sunshine from up there.

Our pepper plants are doing very well this year! So far we’ve pickled four large jars of banana peppers, one jar of jalapeños, and made eight bottles of hot sauce (mostly fresno peppers with some jalapeño & banana thrown in). We’ve also used them for cooking quite a bit.
The cucumbers have been the same. We’ve had so many that we’ve been giving a lot of them away. It’s been great having fresh veggies!
