A little off topic but when I worked at the Dept. of Attorney General
there was a woman who used to come in every couple weeks and take orders
for her stuffed cherry peppers. She supplemented her income by making
those peppers and selling them for $5 per jar.

Oh they were good. Spoiled me.

Then we noticed we hadn't seen her for a month or so. Turns out she'd
passed away. We sent a card to the family and about a week later got a
call.

Seems the family had no idea she had this little side business selling
stuffed cherry peppers to the AG's office employees.
