Anton: Yes, that's why they call me the "Red Hot Mama."
Fred: Yes, we have two

Pikevi: I don't think that 3rd pic is an habanero. Usually they grow like little Japanese lanterns. Looks like a smaller version of mini bell peppers - if not that type, then I think something on the sweet & mild side. The light green peppers I have pictured above are labeled Italian Pepperonchini, however, I do have a problem keeping the tags right once I have 100 peppers started and wasn't positive that this was pepperonchini, therefore, didn't post a name! However, if you observe the shape, it also looks very similar to habeneros when they first start. So, I'll have to wait & see. My son has the habanero and red savina peppers - they're too hot for me. Some of my peppers will be dried for spices and the rest left to hang out on the plants, just to enjoy the colors while they're still in bloom. Your peppers look good - I can see a good homemade pizza with peppers coming up soon!

Gladys: We're showing our age when we start talking canning! I make jalapeno jam. Yummy - a little dab on top of a cracker with cream cheese and a cold beer for a chaser!
