Hi Dave,
RH> So you have to watch to see that you`re growing what you intended to
RH> grow. (G)
DD> I pretty much know what I planted. And where. For instance I planted
DD> my popcorn as far away from my sweet corn as possible so that the
DD> didn`t cross-pollinate.
RH> Cross pollination is not good. Back in 1993 we planted tomatoes, bell
RH> peppers and jalapeno peppers in a little strip garden. The tomatoes did
RH> quite well, made both chili sauce and salsa from them. Unfortunatly,
RH> the bells and jalapenoes cross pollinated so we had bitter, hot bells
RH> and no heat jalapenoes. From then on we planted only one variety of
RH> peppers. (G)
DD> Those are called Mexi-Bells. Many seed companies and nurseries sell
DD> the stable-cross seeds as well as the plants. I don`t understand your
DD> chilies being bland, though. They should have been at least as zippy
DD> as the bells.
We planted regular bells; they cross pollinated with the jalapenoes.
That`s why the chilies were mild.
DD> My late friend, Les, grew Mexi-Bells in his raised bed garden
(along DD> with Thai Bird`s Eye, serrano, jalapeno and NuMex Big Jim
peppers. DD> I`ve used ripe Mexi Bells from his garden to make the
recipe I`ve DD> attached below.

DD> There is a nice article on popping sorghum at WikiHow: If/when I pop
DD> some I`ll use my Stir-Crazy popper.
RH> We had an on stove stir popper for a while, don`t remember if it was
RH> that brand. Once we realised Steve was allergic to corn, it was taken
RH> over to some place like ReStore (forget the exact place) for someone
RH> else to enjoy.
DD> I had one of those stove top poppers (cast iron sauce pan with a
DD> special stirring lid that was hand cranked. When I got the table-top
DD> electric and stand alone Stir Crazy the popper pot went to the
DD> Goodwill. Along with the air popper.
We had an air popper for a number of years, When our cocker spaniel
heard it fire up, he knew he was in for a treat.
DD> And I found this recipe using sorghum flour for a cake. Only
DD> alteration I`ll make is to use my bundt pan.
DD> Title: Sorghum Cake w/Cinnamon Sauce
DD> Categories: Cakes, Desserts, Spices
DD> Yield: 6 servings
RH> It does look good. Last week I made an Ocracoke Fig Cake for a church
RH> pot luck. I`ve used my bundt pan the other times I made it, this time I
RH> used a tube pan. It released from the pan really well, just a very
RH> small area clung to the pan. I pulled it out, stuck it on the cake and
RH> when it was covered with glaze, nobody knew the difference.
DD> I dunno what happened to my tube pan - I think I gave it to my sister
DD> as I never make angel food cake so I saw no need to clutter my
DD> cabints. Bv)=
We got this one from my mom. Started as a borrow, ended up as a keep
when her mind went & Dad kicked her out of the kitchen. None of my
siblings objected to my taking it, and a few other kitchen goodies.
Went to the farmer`s market today. Came home with a bag of pork/red
sauce tamales, a couple of Argentinian pastries, a couple of cinnamon
roll, a bag of lettuce, a couple of sweet potatoes, a loaf of banana
bread, a couple of sausage rolls, a sopapilla cheesecake bar and a bag
of broccoli. Going to have some good eating this week.
