    I can hear it from here. It's saying "feather me, feather me, feather me!"
    Now you have me rolling on the floor and I can't get up!

    Years ago I did some computer rescueing in Farmington NM and stayed with the office manager. We exchanged Christmas gifts -- we send live lobsters and she sent me a beautifyl hanging bunch of Chilles -- I still have them hanging from a beam at the cottage. It is a reminder if a pleasant time

    According to my friend in Los Cruses, they spell it chille not chilli LOL

    Don't know if you've seen them, but in the SW (Arizona, New Mexico, S.California) real chili peppers are put into wreaths and used as Christmas decorations, or they can be year-round kitchen decorations in various shapes. Christmas light manufacturers make their lights in those shapes too.

    Yes, I used to live there but chille is the pepper and chilli is the dish. But as in Green chille with pork it's both. Go figure.

    Actually the preferred US spelling is chili (only one 'l'). I believe two l's are used in the UK. Chile is the country but sometimes used to spell the food. The dictionary doesn't recognize chille at all. That doesn't mean, however, that they don't spell it that way somewhere...

    Correct - in the UK the food is 'chilli' with two ls, and red kidney beans, (sour cream and cheese optional). I have also heard of putting the dark chocolate in to enrichen the sauce but don't do that myself. :mrgreen:

    OK - off to perfect my jalapeno feathers. :lol:
