Paprika

Maybe I should have taken off the dead leaves but I'm still intrigued as how the pepper is ripening but the leaves are dying. What's going on there then?

I spent most of today waiting for the interview and getting more and more anxious about how good or bad my German was going to be. In the end, I needn't have bothered because nobody called. I spent some 20 minutes looking reproachfully at the phone but they still didn't call.

Time to go shopping and I'm expecting to bake on the way. The temperature on the terrace is about 40°C - that's quite warm.
