Dear God Why

The year was 2010. The season was summer. The location a pot garden. A bell pepper seedling died a few weeks into the growing season owing to being weak or perhaps poorly taken care of. To avoid wasting the soil and pot a package of habanero seedlings was procured; one was to be planted and the other two given away, but no one came through on their offer to adopt the plants. Thus the garden ended up with three habanero plants. It is a little known fact that habaneros produce ridiculous numbers of peppers, and so something had to be done with them after the family grew sick of spicy foods every night.
