Recently a colleague taunted me with a picture from his cell phone of a few bags in the coffee shop in our cafeteria at work and my quest began. After just two days…

How to save Bhut Jolokia peppers seeds
I was lucky enough to win some Bhut Jolokia pepper seeds from Red Icculus. In case you haven’t heard of these they are the hottest peppers on earth having a heat rating of over 1 million scoville units. Just to put that into comparison jalapenos are around 5000 scoville units. One property of this pepper is the way the heat builds after consumption, on first bite it is spicy…

A double rainbow! maybe you’ll find a pot of gold somewhere in your garden, just keep digging!
I was hoping that might mean there are two pots of gold at the end. But the science part of my brains keeps saying “That is caused due to the light refracting on the droplets of water vapor in the air”
That is a cool rainbow! And we get enough rain to see a lot of them! Thanks for the fave on blotanist!
