It does sound like you did great at gardening this year! Oh and your bell peppers need some turkey poop compost. I don't know if you can find it up there, but that is what the garden store told me last year and it worked! My bells just wouldn't set on any peppers and after I put the turkey compost around them, they did! Jalapeno peppers are actually easier to grow than bell peppers. We don't eat many jalapeno peppers, we mostly give them away.
