Fall means chile ristras!

You see them all over our area in the fall ... but there is nothing like having one hanging on your portal and getting to see it every morning when you look out the window! I guess everything seems more exciting the first year you do it.

I have some little peppers that came out of my garden. They are turning a beautiful red. Although they are only a couple of inches long I thought I might string them into a rista. Pretty silly!

My ristra hangs indoors, semi-draped over the edge of a mirror... my ONE piece of Southwest decor, LOL!

Lou,
Oh wouldn't it be fun to try to string them? I never thought to try making my own ristra.

Maybe we need to be teaching Buck the correct display of a ristra! LOL
