Jalapeño peppers or cucumbers?

When you plant jalapeño seeds you get.....
Cucumbers!?

Let me tell you we were shocked too! :)
We had a mini compost pile going in a large flower pot hoping
it would nourish the dirt and we could get some jalapeños going in there.
A couple months ago we stirred up the dirt and planted our seeds and
look what we have! Cucumbers! :)
It seems the cucumber seeds "woke up" from the compost pile and decided
to grow. I'm a little sad I do not have jalapeños but I am really enjoying the little
cucumbers! They nice and little and so yummy. A nice treat since all we get from
the market here are the HUGE cucumbers that sometimes have no flavor.
