Hi!
A couple of weeks ago I bought some new chilies to replace the one that had died some time back...
6 new chili seedlings with no names
I have no idea what chilies I had bought. I was stupid enough to throw the label in the bin before writing down the names of the plants.
I'm hoping these will survive though. It'd be kind of sad if they too suffered the faith of the previous chilies. I miss my Habanero bush. It was a bad-ass super plant like the Sansevieria I blogged about earlier.
Anyway, today was sleepy. I messed up my sleeping schedule yet again last night. Couldn't get much done today either. Ok, I took the boys to their school winter carnival, and picked them up at noon. Went shopping for birthday gifts and cards plus some tortillas, meat and other fillings. Then prepared burritos with Vera, and after eating took Miro to his classmate's birthday party (again, they seem to have weekly birthday parties). Then I went to Kärkkäinen to browse photography stuff and wait for the birthday party to end, and eventually met with @MarkkuJantunen over coffee at as he was sent to the hardware store by his wife.
Miro was very happy all day and I'm glad. He was also very loud when I picked him up from the birthday party, very very loud, and he actually didn't stop speaking before we got home, and still he went on about his major plans, until he noticed Leo was practicing the Star Wars theme on the synthesizer. Only then he stopped and tried to shove Leo away from the instrument so that he'd be able to play.
Battle ensued...
Gladly I got them quiet after a while, by playing them some piano music and marble machine videos from Youtube.
Later I read them some Goblet of Fire and bid them good night.
Okay that was my day today. :) And my photo. I didn't take other photos today as I was "soo busy".
Earlier in "Cataloguing the plants":
- Miro's Cactus
- Leo's Echinocactus grusonii
- Leo's Senecio serpens
- Crassula
- Nepenthes
- Sansevieria trifasciata 'Hahnii'

@gamer00,
Seriously you like to eat Chills? I thought all Europeans hates to eat them! But we love that most and having different type of plants in my garden as well!
Cheers~

Hmm, yes it may not be good idea not to spend time with your kids. But in this recent age, most fathers are occupied with work and worst still if he works in a different town/state.

Yeah you are correct @turpsy, but there is always some form of side-effect on the kids if their parents don't spend time with them when they are growing up.
Some studies have shown that teenage pregnancy was as a result of neglect from their fathers.

I think it would be impossible to be a perfect parent. There is always going to be something that you should have done differently as a parent. But yes, spending time with kids is essential.

You are correct @dromzz. The only thing a good parent can do is to try their best for their kids, because they cannot be perfect.

The Habaneros would be the hottest I'd say, never had a chance (or stomach) to try hotter ones. ;)
But yes I do generally like spicy food, be it Mexican, Indian, Japanese or just about from anywhere in the world. And my boys seem to be chili heads too. My fault really, I once bought these garlic chili cashew nuts and Leo was sold. He now loves all sorts of hot food. Miro is less so, but spicy snacks are something he also craves.

Apples are not native to Finland, so they don't grow from seeds, but grafted onto a more cold hardy tree root they will survive and fruit.
When we get that piece of land we want, I'll plant a few apple trees I guess. :)

they hold up in the cold here amazingling. they take like 3 years before they start to produce and depending on they type of apple you might need more then one tree, some types need other trees to polinate to produce apples and some others dont.

I feel you when it comes to the sleeping schedule. I haven't had one in years.
As for the chilies, do you prefer spicy or sweet? I'm a fan of spicy myself.

Yea it seems my wife really hit the nail on the head Yesterday when she told me people will probably mistake the propagators into pastries as I've been photographing quite a lot of pastries in the past.
I really need to fix my sleep schedule because it'll probably be the death of me if I don't. I suggest if you have problems with it, try fixing it as well. It's not fun getting sick almost twice a month just because of weakened immune system and all.
I prefer spicy chilies, although sweet bell peppers have their place too. :)
Here? They can try. However I have a strict policy against bots on my blog.

I'm new to your blog so I didn't even have a bias for thinking they were pastries, probably just my inner fat person coming out.
Its been so long I don't get physically sick from the lack of sleep patterns anymore. Though I do believe it may be partially responsible for certain bouts of depression. I often use ASMR to lull myself to sleep when the need arises, have you ever gave it a listen?
I too prefer spicy chilies, and food as a whole, but you are right, some food just needs those sweet peppers.
And the bots listen? How do you manage that?

One thing you can do is to identify them. I believe there is University in your municipality. Take the leave to the Univeristy, and asked for the herbarium. Mostly found in the Department of botany or plant science depending on different school. They will identify the plant for you and catalogue it with an identification number if its an uncatalogued species.

Any way its always fun to have active boys. You will always have to settle fight.

Hello Friend. I tell you my mother-in-law lives in an area of Venezuela that sows chile, my sister-in-law @yurilaya, came to visit our home, and my mother-in-law sent us her harvest, I send you some photographs that I took to show you, and I leave the link of my sister-in-law who made a publication of that.

I tried to read the post through twice but I did not notice if you had mentioned what chili's you have now?
Habaneros are really demanding to be grown, they require a lot of light and die off easily. Same with a multitude of c.chinenses.
It's a shame though they are usually only really hot ones, but I'm growing some quite hot easy chili's which seem to survive overwinter :) My own favorite one is called Malawi Bird's Eye, it's a bit milder than a habanero but the best ones are really spicy. Easy to grow and not too demanding.
