Happy Fourth of July everyone! I hope you all had a great day with family and friends. I spent a few hours of my Fourth painting, and, of course, working on this blog. My models today came straight from our garden. A few evenings ago, I picked a large bunch of ripe, red cayenne peppers. During the spring when I planted these, I had high hopes of being able to get a few to paint, but I had no idea how plentiful our harvest would be. Now my wife and I are talking about how we are going to dry and grind them. I can't wait to use a few for our barbeque rub. I hope they are as tasty as they look.
