Right now I have so many peppers and chiles in the garden. I am going to freeze some and mke sauces with some. I have 2 dozen or so Red Savina Habanaros (hotter than habanaros) and Caribbeans-should be fiery sauces.
I love mincing the chiles and placing in honey-makes a wonderful hot-sweet drizzle for veggies, and of course barbecuing. You don't need to refrigerate as long as the chiles are covered in the honey as it is a natural preservative.

I totally love peppers, i try to use them as often as possible in fact my wife gets irritated with me cause sometimes i use too many peppers and she can't eat it ;) but personally to me the hotter the better. next year im planning on growing some anaheims, jalapenos, habanaro's, and cayenne, along with some orange, yellow, red, and green bells, after all you can't have a trinity without bell peppers :)

That's kewl! I had gained after a back injury and stopped running to Europe, India, China, etc. every month for my job. I am normally a slim trim type, so it's nice to be getting back into size 8. I am going back on WW as I have maintained the weight loss for 1 year. I do splurge and eat triple creme French cheese once in awhile, but not as much as I use to do.
I am not into desserts but good cheese, oh dear I am in trouble! Fortunately I am addicted to flavours using lotsa spice, garlic, and chiles.
I have a lot of chiles in the garden to harvest. Red Savina Habanaros, Carribeans, several Ajis, many Thai and Indian varieties too.

Oh dear a lot of fat grams here. I use FF sour cream and some horseradish in stroganoff. I am sure the flavour is very good and so rich I'd die. LOL Haven't cooked with a lot of fat in so many years. I lost 36# on WW over a year ago and haven't gained any back. All I did was cut down fats, using maybe 2 tsp olive oil a day, and smaller portions.
My husband use to cook like you lotsa butter, cream and cheeses-no more as I explained health issues to him. He is slim and trim no matter what he eats, but he never eats alot. (6' @ 175# for over 25 years) Before that much slimmer, as in too skinny.
