I had a good year, in particular, for habanero peppers (and some other hot ones). For some reason they started to fruit and ripen pretty much a good month earlier than normal. I thought to manage enough sauce (very concentrated, w/vinegar) to take me to the following year. Turns out I'll have most of a liter of sauce.
Oddly enough, the tomatoes were a bust. Herd a lot of that was "going around" - and that's odd. Usually they're the most over-abundant of the garden.
That habanero sauce has just the greatest aroma (until it spikes your nostrils a couple of seconds later).
Not much of a squash fan. Eggplant serves my purposes. How long's your growing season?
One thing I quite don't understand: Zucchinis ?[^] Did you link to the wrong picture or purchase the wrong seeds?

I can grow things all year around... Not the same however... I rotate between what we call summer and winter vegetables...
The beetroots and celery and carrots are already growing nicely...
The picture is almost exactly the same as in real life - the actual zucchini I have a bit darker green...
We call it here round-zucchini and it is the same family you see in your link...

Is that in any way related to Apple-of-the-Tree vs. Apple-of-the-Earth for what, in English are apples and potatoes, or a general custom for all squash?
* an excellent pun I might add

First things first:Kornfeld Eliyahu Peter wrote: And I do not drink coffee That's pretty silly - what else would a sensible human being want to do with it?
On a kibbutz (a very long time ago) there was a Canadian volunteer who asked me how to say 'cucumber'. Beside the likelihood he'd never believe me if I gave him the real answer I had a golden opportunity for mischief. That evening he asked the waitress for it using the term I gave him in firm clear voice: "Ten li zubo yarak".
The look on her face as she shouted "Mah?"; the mayhem that followed; the roars of laughter - it was worth losing his trust in such matters!

Not knowing Hebrew, I assume this is similar to the Monty Python sketch in which an English-Hungarian dictionary translated the phrase "May I buy some cigarettes?" to "May I fondle your buttocks?" in Hungarian.

Let's put it this way - the translation would definitely not be KSS!

The predecessor to the Internet, ARPANET carried the first message between two computers.
On the second try, admittedly - the first attempt to login crashed after the "L" and the "O" and it took an hour or so to fix the bug.

I used ARPANET - briefly - in the early eighties: feeling old yet?

In the early 1990s, when I was teaching computer networks at a tech college, one problem in the final exam was to compare a 9600 bps modem line to my St.Bernhard "Bass", trained to run arbitrary distances at a speed of 15 km/h, carrying (rather than a keg of whiskey) under his chin a box of ten 1,44 Mbyte floppies. (Sure, the idea came from A. Tanenbaum: Computer Networks; I just had to brush up the speeds and capacities a little bit.)
One of the students made some remarks about noise along the line, in the form of bitches in heat along the route. Another one commented that the data was physically protected against theft ...
