    Good company: chilies, cats and bugs
    Afternoon on the rooftop
    May 11, 2009

    BugI was on the rooftop to water the plants, and I found this incredible guest, a bug lying under the sun.

    CatAnother guest lies near the pots. Hey neighborhood cat, I know that you are the one who ate my popcorn plants!
    Luckyly he doesn't like peppers...

    Pasilla Bajio small podI have some pepper plants from last year, and they seem ahead last year's plants. This Pasilla Bajio is full of small pods.

    Jalapeno Jaloro small podAmong this year's plants, this Jalapeno Jaloro is the first pod, and it grows bigger every day.

    Gatto a cacciaThe two guests have met. I don't know how the story ends, but I guess there was no happy ending for the bug.

    ciao Graziana,
    ammetto che sembra molto simpatico però è bastata una piccola verifica per capire che forse tanto simpatico non lo è:

    parlo del tuo amico insetto, che assomiglia molto a questo qui

    palma avvisata, mezza salvata!
    Saluti e complimenti per le ricette ;)

    Hai proprio ragione Vincenzo, sembra proprio lui. Non ho palme da datteri in giardino, solo delle yucca, verificherò se sono state attaccate. Grazie per la segnalazione!
