Monday saw the beginning of what is sure to become an annual competition at Yuppiechef HQ. Yes, it all began with the sheer wisdom of Shane – ‘why not have a chilli growing competition and offer a day’s leave to the first person who grows a one?’. The idea was an instant hit (especially to employees) and when there was a sunny day, out we popped out to Soil for Life to grab some Chilli seeds and little pots to grow them in.
Some rules were developed, not sure by who again, and an hour later we had ourselves a competition. Check the 5 entrants of the people in the office that day below. Unfortunately for those staff members who were holidaying overseas or elsewhere (like at home in bed) they were to miss out.
So our best wishes to all competitors, as the rules stipulate “May the best man win. And may the youngest man win”.For those poor people at home who feel left out, why not send in some tips, encouragments or even photos to help spur us on. We may know some things about kitchen tools, but in the world of chilli growing we’re amateurs (generally). You never know, maybe we’ll send you some lovely, organic chilli’s with your next order!
