Default Plant ID, Please

In early 2002, I had a packet of mixed pepper seeds. I planted several,
mainly out of curiosity. I was rewarded with a nice jalapeno plant which
has given me several peppers.

But another plant grew up with it, that I have no idea what it is. For
two and a half years, it did nothing but get taller and broader -- never
so much as a blossom. Around last August I started giving the plants more
water, and suddenly it burst out in tiny white blossoms. I don't know if
this was the result of the increased water, or just coincident. The
blossoms developed into tiny, round fruits, which never got very large,
and are now beginning to ripen.

Anyone know what this plant is?
