I'll never forget that a couple of years ago, I made a Salsa, using
some peppers I picked up randomly at a local Farmer's Market. I know
some of those peppers were Habaneras, but there were other peppers, I
believe were even hotter.

We were having a family outing up at Sand Harbor @ Lake Tahoe. The
salsa almost sent the entire clan into the water, to cool their
smoldering tail feathers. But one son-in-law, remained seated at the
picnic table, calmly eating the salsa by the chip loads - He was
taking it like a man;-) He claimed it was the best damned salsa he
had ever eaten.
