Today's Weather Forecast

A Chilli Start To The Day

Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHON


I have to admit, it's fascinating to watch a chilli plant. The chillis start out a light yellow colour and then as they mature, the tip of each chilli turns orange and the colour slowly suffuses right through, before turning shiny red. And this is probably as good a time as any to confess that despite being born and bred in India, I cannot eat food that is too chilli-hot. But wasabi? Hey, that's a different story altogether!

I'm enjoying the contrasting colors in this photo. And thanks for "fessing up".

Hi Deborah,

Nice to hear from you. Glad you liked the colours.

The funny thing is: none of my friends who eat chilli can eat wasabi!

What about you?

Cheers

David
