When do you sleep. I only dream of doing those things!

Hmmm, from about 2 AM to 8 AM....generally...
You can do these things easily....even if you don't have a garden. Buy
produce in bulk when it is in season and can it or freeze it for later.
Hot pepper oil is about the easiest thing in the world to make. I just
heat up a jar of olive oil in a saucepan, toss in about a cup of crushed
dried peppers or more...you can even add more dried peppers later if the
oil doesn't look red/hot enough, and stir for a while, keeping the oil
warm. Then I put the whole shebang in a jar for a week or so, and shake
the jar a couple of times a day. Then, I reheat the oil again, strain
out the pepper flakes and pour the oil through a coffee filter and
funnel back into the bottle. Voila! If you add up all of the time, it
probably takes less than 30-40 minutes, excluding growing and drying the
peppers and buying oil, of course. :)
