The real Goddess of the Ranch and the one maintains tranquility is “La Abuela”, the Grand-Ma of The Pepper People.. This woman, now trans-formed from person into a pepper is from the Ecuador. She is saint-like, and is referred to as the Mother of the Earth, La Ma de la Tierra, or simply,…La Ma!
From the moment Tennessee Bob and family arrived, the locals there started transforming.
Ma and her son, Rico moved from Quito to the ranch soon after Bob and his family had settled in for good. They too could not believe all spicy characters that were arriving. None of Bob’s family even considered it ever happening to them. They were too busy being entertained!
One morning, Ma woke up and all of a sudden she was an Ecua-dorian Aji pepper! None of Bob’s family could believe it and Ma was in shock for quite some time. The Pepper People bow to her and always show her respect and offer her Chimichurri cheers.
This woman, now the spicy God-Mother of this hacienda, is of the original Ecuadorian types. She is always dressed in the traditional fare and has a warm if not more Angelic aura about her. Her skin is light Brown and she is warm and inviting. Just like the Aji pepper, deep within there is strength and fire but her demeanor is inviting, fun and warm!
Ma supports Tennessee Bob in every way and provides that nurturing and spiritual guidance to all within these gates. Church services are held every Sunday and everyone attends religiously, especially The Pepper People with the most troubled past human lives.
