Pepper harvest

It is now 10:20 p.m.  The temperature is 40 degrees, and we may have a frost.  Not to worry.  We picked all of the hot peppers–jalapeños, habaneros, Scotch bonnets, chiles (lots of chiles), cherry, and Hungarian wax.  We just cut the whole plants off and threw them in the back of the pickup.  No time to pick the individual peppers.  Now we can pick them off the plants at leisure in the cellar.  

The question is, what will I do with a bushel or more of hot peppers.  People in this area are not really into hot peppers.  The bigger question is, why did I grow them?
