A Ristra And Snow


Next to the front door of my cabin, a ristra.

Ristras are seen in New Mexico and southern Arizona. Strings of chiles hanging out to dry, for cooking and eating. Or simply to be used as a decoration. That’s the case here. A beautiful decoration representing a favorite part of this country, said to bring good health and good luck.

Very special to me.

    • Thank you so much Anita. Though I was born in DC and raised in Maryland, my husband is born and raised in New Mexico, and our son was in grad school in Tucson, Arizona for 6 years. So loads of visiting the southwest for me! And I love it!
